<font color=8fbc8f>I have inadvertently misplaced the real name of these landmarks from my personal collection. Was wondering if you would help me out here. They are from the North Sea beach and The Hague area. Tanks!</font>

The last pic is the Kurhaus in Scheveningen, that's where the Rolling Stones had their first ever concert in Holland.

Kurhaus

I'm going to have to look a little deeper into the other ones, although one of them is probably the cityhall, and another looks like an old warehouse, but i'm on it. Gimme some time and i'll get back to you.

Madame Tussaud's...isn't that waxworks?

johnny 01-06-2007 04:37 PM

I should have known better. :rolleyes: The third one is in Amsterdam and is called "het paleis op de Dam", and it belongs to the royal family. Stop giving me misleading info Felix, The Hague and Amsterdam is an ocean of difference. :D

Two more to go, i'll be back. :D

Dammit Felix, i totally made an ass out of myself by asking around for these buildings from The Hague. People were under the impression i was drunk, go figure. :D

Anyway, the first pic is also on de Dam in Amsterdam and is called "de nieuwe kerk" which means "the new church".

The second one is most likely, but i'm still waiting for confirmation, Madame Tussaud, also in Amsterdam. it's a museum with wax sculptures.

So only the last pic you posted was in the area of The Hague. :D

Official name of the second one is Madame Tussauds Scenerama

We have all 4 of em now. [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font color=8fbc8f>Damn-it Man, My apologies! I hate it when I get them misconstrued as other things, especially in different folders. Now with your help I can get my folder organized.

I really do appreciate your help! [img]graemlins/cheers.gif[/img] </font>

<font color=8fbc8f>Last one, more for trivia. Would this be called a Pier, or something more extravagant?</font>

Yep, that one is called "de Scheveningse pier" or "de pier van Scheveningen", and that one is in the The Hague area. I've been drunk upthere more than on one occasion. :D

Did you take all those pics yourself when you were visiting or something ?
