Also in Punda and in decade of Curaçao diverse past, Mcvee is real manual synagoge. It is the oldest synagoge in continuous use in the western hemisphere founded in 1732. It have also the oldest Jewish cemetery in the new world.

Connecting Punda & Otrobanda is the 19 century Queen Emma Bridge. It is a old fashion pontoon bridge that floats open to let boats ships into the harbour. This bridge is at the hart and rhythm and phase of Willemstad.

When evening falls Willemstad lay in a warm glow of sea side lights. Reflections of century's old buildings mingles with the light of the moon in St. Ana bay. Blow blind walk ways invite night time scrawls along the water front.
