The Royal Plaza Mall is the most traditional shopping area in Oranjestad. This very pink and ornate building houses an attractive collection of shops that offers a little bit of everything. It is conveniently located right across the cruise ship terminal right in the middle of Oranjestad, walking distance to the bus station, museums , galleries and shopping malls.
Heineken fans will like the Christmas decorations on this tree in front of this Aruban bar.
The main airport in Aruba welcomes visitors with a traffic roundabout that displays it's international collection of flags!
