Quizfrage

What was the Kura Hulanda Village in Willemstad in the past?

Antwort

For many years, the Kura Hulanda Hotel was a large, picturesque city hotel in the colonial style of the 18th and 19th centuries. Conferences and events were held and the hotel rooms were located within the various houses, which were accessed via cobbled alleyways and beautiful courtyards.

The Kura Hulanda has been restored and transformed into a small village with a lively residential area, a downsized hotel, bars and restaurants. It deserves to be discovered by you.

  • Quiz Question

    What is a Maribomba?

    Answer

    The yellow paper wasp (Polistes versicolor), which is common on Curacao, has the funny-sounding name Maribomba in the local language Papiamentu.

    This name has its origins in the Bantu language Kimbundu, in which wasp means “marimbondo”. Once again, the connection between Curacao’s slavery past and the influence of an African language on the creole language Papiamentu becomes clear.

    We were told that the sting of a maribomba is quite painful. But so far we have been spared.

  • Quiz Question

    Who or what is Hato?

    Answer

    Hato is the name of Curacao International Airport (CUR), the only international airport on Curacao.

    There are also the Hato Caves or Grottoes of Hato. These are a network of limestone caves. They are located opposite Hato airport.

    Perhaps you could take a look at them on your departure day? The planes to Amsterdam don’t usually take off until the evening anyway. From the cave entrance you have an excellent view of the airport, the taxiway and the runway. Worth seeing!
