Queen Emma Bridge

The Queen Emma Pontoon is the most famous landmark in Curacao. Every day, the cruise ship enters or leaves the port. The pontoon will be opened. It is very spectacular. The pontoon itself is a work of combining craftsmanship, technology and aesthetics, plus the brightness under daylight during the day, and the charming after lighting at night.

During the day, many tourists on cruise ships landed, so it was difficult to shoot the empty scene of the pontoon bridge. The next day, while the sky was light, they came out to shoot the empty scene. It happened to meet the pontoon bridge. The cruise ship entered the port. The scene was very spectacular, with the city color shown on both sides of the Straits. The scenery was quite beautiful.

The port of Williamstad, the capital of the island of Curacao in the southern Caribbean, was a fine trading harbor built by the Dutch in the 17th century. On one side is the Otrobanda (built in 1707) and on the other side is the Punda (built in 1634). The two districts are separated by Santa Ana Bay and connected by the Emma Queen Floating Bridge, built in 1888.

The bridge named after the Queen is tall, huh?

Emma Queen Floating Bridge: A bridge that can be opened and closed to Curaçao must visit is the Emma Queen Floating Bridge, some say it is a "rite of passage" to travel here. There are many famous restaurants and various small shops along the bridge. This is the center of the town. When I arrived here, I really couldn't help but admire it. The scenery next to the bridge was really beautiful! Every tourist is holding a camera to take pictures, and I can't wait to record it all with my mobile phone. There are small buildings on the edge of the bridge, colorful and colorful. The red roof, the delicate window lattice, is really like a cabin inside a fairy tale. The bridge also has a funny nickname, the swaying old lady. Because it can be opened and closed, when there is a boat to pass through, the bridge can open and let the boat pass. If you have plenty of time, I would recommend staying in Curacao for a while and enjoying the charming town. At night, the Queen Emma pontoon will show a completely different style from the daytime, the bars on both sides of the Straits will open, intoxicated lights, passionate melody in the ear, and a few more bottles of beer, everything is great! [Tip] The store by the bridge is closed on Sundays! The bridge opens and visitors are free to take the ferry; when the bridge is closed, the ferry will be suspended.
