Quizfrage

Is it called Otrobanda or Otrabanda (the district of Willemstad)?

Antwort

Both are correct!

In the literal translation from the local language Papiamentu, Otrobanda means the “other side”. It doesn’t matter whether you say Otrobanda or Otrabanda, confirms Pablo from Iguana Ride, who offers city tours on e-scooters through the various districts.

Otrabanda is the district of Willemstad that lies opposite Punda. The St. Annabaai strait separates the two districts. How do you get across? The Queen Emma Bridge is for pedestrians, and the Queen Juliana Bridge is for all motor vehicles.

  • Quiz Question

    How was the relaxedcuracao.com logo created?

    Answer

    Sun, palm trees and the sea can be found on all tropical islands…

    But typical for the vegetation and the dry climate on Curacao is the Kadushi cactus. Its arms branch out from a stem, which makes it more aesthetic than other cacti. It is also edible and therefore serves as a source of food (Dushi Kadushi soup). A Kadushi cactus often stands alone on a hill – behind it only the turquoise blue sea, the sky and the sun. This image has burned into our memory so much that we have created our logo from it.

    Our logo colors also reflect the colors of the Curacao flag: dark blue and yellow.
