From there we continued down to Wilhelmina Park - which really needs a lot of work done on it. Here you will see the statue of Queen Wilhelmina. This park is surrounded by a handful of attractive government and office buildings, including the Tele Museum (you guessed it -- closed) which traces the history of telecommunication on Curacao.
Immediately behind these is the Waterfort, built in the same time as the Rif Fort to defend the canal. At the eastern end of the fort, now known as Waterfort Arches, shops and restaurants occupy the arches that once held barracks and munitions. The seaside terrace is a pleasant place to stop for a drink or snack -- all closed.
