  • Quiz Question

    What is the story behind the colorful facades of the Handelskade in Willemstad?

    Answer

    Around 1815, Governor Albert Kikkert ordered the houses to be painted in bright colors, as the original white of the facades supposedly dazzled his eyes too much.

    In reality, however, he was involved in the only paint factory on the island and thus made a good business. It is thanks to him that Willemstad has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997.

  • Quiz Question

    What does the flag of Curacao look like?

    Answer

    The flag has a dark blue background and a yellow stripe in the lower third. The blue symbolizes the sea and the sky, separated by the yellow sun.

    In the upper left corner are two white, five-pointed stars. The five points stand for the continents from which the inhabitants of Curacao originate. The larger star represents Curacao and the smaller one the neighboring island of Klein Curacao.
