Archaeological Museum of Aruba (The) This fascinating museum oulines the earliest history of the Island dating back to its first settlers. With ceramic artifacts, stone tools, shells and other ornaments on display, visitors are able to get a first hand look at the beginning way of life.  The Historical Museum of Aruba A relatively short history accompanies this museum which was only established in 1983. Under the direction of the Cultureel Centrum van Aruba the museum was finally completed after the restoration of the Fort Zoutman Willem III Tower. Aruba Numismatic Museum The museum contains over 40,000 different pieces covering over 400 countries! http://www.museumaruba.org The Butterfly Farm It offers visitors the opportunity to interact with and learn about butterflies and their life cycle. Guided 20-30 minute tours lead guests through a large tropical garden where hundreds of exotic butterflies fly freely. http://www.thebutterflyfarm.com/ De Oude Molen It seems somewhat fitting to see a landmark tribute to this thriving culture. The windmill was originally built in 1804, but was transported to the Island piece by piece and resurrected into its present glory in 1960. Aruba Economic Affairs It is a government agency with the objective to advise the Minister of Finance and Economic Affairs on domestic macro- and microeconomic policy and on international trade issues. http://www.arubaeconomicaffairs.aw/ The Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) It is the institution officially assigned with the collection, processing and publication of statistics to be used by policymakers, in practice and for research in different areas. http://www.cbs.aw Arikok National Park The park is a 32 square kilometers (7907 acres) of natural area located at the north-eastern part of Aruba which contains examples of most of the islands flora and fauna against a backdrop of great geological complexity. Bubali Bird Sanctuary This lush sanctuary might seem out of place amid the arid and dry surroundings, however initially it was. The lakes, Large Bubali Pond and Small Bubali Pond are man-made, with the water coming from a nearby water treatment facility. Hooiberg This hill has long been a popular outdoor location for visitors and Arubans alike. Rising above the Island at approximately 540 feet, visitors are drawn to its unique environment and stunning views. Wilhelmina Park With all the desert-like surroundings, you might be searching for that perfect grassy spot on the Island to have a picnic or maybe just read a book. If so, Oranjestad has exactly what you're looking for. |
