"The people of the Netherlands established a trading settlement at a fine
natural harbour on the Caribbean island of Curaçao in 1634. The town
developed continuously over the following centuries. The modern town
consists of several distinct historic districts whose architecture
reflects not only European urban-planning concepts but also styles from
the Netherlands and from the Spanish and Portuguese colonial towns with
which Willemstad engaged in trade." -http://whc.unesco.org
