Kura Hulanda Museum

Sometimes a walk through history is what we need to gain perspective on life and the Kura Hulanda Museum located in Willemstad, Curacao does just that. This historic museum takes us back in time and gets you traveling through the difficult times of the slave trade, African history, culture and arts. The artifacts in the museum are laced with the pain and tragedy that was a part of African slave trade and the serene surroundings creates an air of solemnity to all tourists. The restored buildings at Kura Hulanda Museum speaks volumes from the bygone era giving visitors a true insight of how architecture was in the past and the fact that it is located on one of the most beautiful islands along the Caribbean coast is another contributing factor to this sites popularity. Also situated on site is a gift shop selling exotic souvenirs and a restored hotel. This is a must vist place when visiting this region and holiday rentals and houses on Curacao Island can be found local to this fantastic site .
