Queen Emma Bridge and Handelskade
This view from Rif Fort catches a couple of the high lights of the capital Willemstad. The Queen Emma Bridge which is 167 metre long pedestrian bridge that was first built in 1888. Multiple times a day the bridge swings open to allow boats to pass into the bay. The other iconic sight is the Handelskade, which is the row of brightly painted establishments along the water front beside Queen Emma Bridge. As you can imagine, it is a rather touristy place, however we did enjoy a couple of beer at the Iguana Cafe, something I would recommend. The sights both people and waterfront are something to be enjoyed.
