Roman Catholic is the most common religion in Curaçao (about 70%).

And one more picture showing colorful streets of Willemstad.
Of course, some of my pictures show rich and others poorer areas of the city. Still, all of them are very colorful and have its own charm.

Other colorful streets of Willemstad.

p.s. I’m not sure were those houses on renovation when I was visiting Curaçao years ago; maybe now everything look completely different?
In my memory, entire Willemstad is full of colours.

Willemstad has characteristic colorful buildings,
and even some streets are so nice.

This long pontoon bridge is something really unique in Willemstad.
I took plenty pictures of this bridge, when it’s open, close, with clouds, during sunsets, etc. 🙂

Willemstad is the capital of Curaçao.

A bus from Curaçao brings a message. 😉

When I was in Curaçao, cruise ships were visiting the island from time to time.
You could see it immediately, because suddenly the calm places were becoming busy and noisy.

Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao are known as ABC islands
(what makes it easier to remember their names 😉 ).

I remember looking at the sea and seeing my “first” crab in Curaçao.
It was something like that:
-Oh crab.
Oh, another one.
Wait, crabs are everywhere! Wow! 🙂

There are a few species of iguana in Curaçao.

You can find some interesting formations on Curaçao.

Do you know why there is a picture of sushi on the trash bins in Curaçao?
Well, “sushi” in Papiamento (Papiamentu) language means “dirty” or “waste”. 🙂

Curaçao has three official languages: Dutch, Papiamentu and English.
Spanish is also widely spoken.

How do you like the number plates from Curaçao? 🙂

The blue color on the flag of Curaçao symbolises the sea and sky; yellow – sun, and two stars – Curaçao and Klein Curaçao islands.
