The Queen Emma Bridge

The Queen Emma Bridge, nicknamed the "Swinging Old Lady," is a historic wooden pontoon bridge in Willemstad, Curaçao, that connects the Punda and Otrobanda districts. Built in 1888, it's famous for swinging open sideways to allow ships to pass through the St. Anna Bay, and when it closes, free ferries shuttle pedestrians across. It's a popular landmark, especially at night when it's lit up, offering great views of the colorful Dutch colonial architecture.Läs mer
