  3. Scharloo is the fourth and youngest colonial district of the group. It was originally used for agriculture and shipbuilding, but later became home to some of the island's wealthiest merchants and their mansions. Most of these buildings today have been restored and reused as museums, hotels and offices. Today, Scharloo is becoming one of Willemstad's most creative districts, with new businesses, restaurants and art galleries. On the way we will stop to take a photo of the wedding cake house, where you will also learn the entire history behind this famous house.

About Willemstad

Willemstad, the capital of Curaçao, is a Caribbean port of pastel Dutch gabled houses, a floating bridge and a UNESCO-listed old town.

Willemstad is built around St Anna Bay, the inlet that splits the town into Punda and Otrobanda. Rows of pastel merchants' houses in Dutch colonial style line the Handelskade waterfront, and a pontoon footbridge, the Queen Emma Bridge, swings open for ships. The historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Mikvé Israel-Emanuel synagogue, with its sand floor, is among the oldest in the Americas.

Top-ranked sights in Willemstad: Kokomo Beach, Blue Bay Beach.
