The island country of Aruba features a host of attractions for its visitors. Oranjestad, its capital, is considered a mini version of Amsterdam, with its Dutch colonial architecture. The city is dotted with casinos, shops, and restaurants. If you love exploring, head to Arikok National Park and Hooiberg. History lovers will want to check out Bushiribana Ruins, which were once used as a hideaway by pirates, and Alto Vista Chapel, which was founded over two centuries ago. Of course, the highlight of a trip here is the beaches and water sports. To find a place where you can stay, browse through this list of the top beach resorts in Aruba.
