WILLEMSTAD, Curaçao — The famed Plasa Bieu (Old Market) is closed for an extensive renovation.
The plaza, one of the best places on the island to sample local fare such as goat stew, closed in March. The Curaçao Chronicle reports the rehab project could take six months.
The market has moved to the new market (Nobo) next door. Diners can find local fare on the upper level of the market.
Sightseers’ Delight started publishing in June 2016. The site, published by The DeFeo Groupe, collects and curates content about places where historical events large and small happened. The site builds off the legacy of The Travel Trolley, which launched in June 2009. The site aimed to be a virtual version of the trolley tours offered in so many cities.
When visitors look to visit Curaçao today, they don’t need to worry about the availability of water on the island. However, turn back the clock to the early and middle years of the 20th century, and water was a more precious resource.
For decades, The Rif Fort guarded Saint Anna Bay and the city of Willemstad. Today, the historic structure no longer deters visitors to the island; it welcomes them.
