Aruba Fontaine is not an independent country, but the capital and largest city of the Caribbean island nation of Aruba, officially known as Oranjestad. Located on the southwestern coast of Aruba, facing the Caribbean Sea, the city is known for its colorful Dutch colonial-style architecture, bustling port and duty-free shopping area.
Founded in 1796, Oranjestad derives its name from the Dutch royal family of Orange. Historically the political and economic center of Aruba, the city retains a large number of 17th and 18th century Dutch buildings, such as the Willem III Tower and the History Museum. The local culture is a blend of Caribbean, Dutch and Latin American elements, and traditional celebrations such as Carnival are held throughout the year.
As a duty-free port, Oranjestad attracts a large number of cruise ship passengers, and the main street, Caya G.F. Betico Croes, is home to international brand stores. The economy is dominated by tourism, finance and services, and is surrounded by world-class white sand beaches such as Eagle Beach. The city has a well-developed infrastructure, with an international airport and port connecting it to North and South America.
