Oranjestad

Population: 26355 people.

Area: 13 km².

Despite the thousands of tourists that pour into the town it has managed to retain its charm. The downtown streets are lined with pastel-coloured Dutch colonial houses adorned with ornate gable roofs, and the average tourist will be unaware that many are recent imitations. The small Archaeological Museum has exhibits on Aruba's Arawak inhabitants and, in the restored 18th-century Fort Zoutman, the Museo Arubano, displays Aruba's pre-European and colonial eras while the Numismatic Museum has a large collection of coins from over 400 countries, many salvaged from shipwrecks in the surrounding area. Although shoppers will find central Oranjestad packed with boutiques and shopping complexes and glitzy 24-hour casinos, it is possible to escape this tourist zone and discover the more authentic town with its lively, if slightly run-down bars where one can enjoy a beer and meet the locals.
