A visit to Aruba wont be complete without visiting Arubas museums to get to know the part of Aruba which only its past could unlock. There are several museums in Aruba, depending on what type of knowledge one is hoping to learn, from the Aruba Aloe Museum and Factory, Historical Museum, Numismatic Museum, Archaeological Museum, Museum of Antiquities all in Oranjestad to the Model Train Museum in San Nicolas. The first stop should be at the Aruba Aloe Museum which affects widely the economic as well as psychological standpoint of Arubas culture in terms of healing, tracing it from the discovery of the aloe plant down to the time when Aruba became the worlds largest exporter of Aloe. The Historical Museum or Fort Zuotman is considered as the oldest structure in Aruba and is a great way to discover how the Dutch influence Aruba and at how much their influence penetrated present life.

The Shopping Experience in Aruba Going shopping in Aruba is unlike any other experience one usually relates to the task at home, with its big arcades and endless boutiques at a generic mall. For one, Aruba has no formal mall, at least not in the sense that it has endless boutiques to get lost in or a generic building to hold the shops. The closest thing to a mall is the Paseo Herencia Shopping and Entertaining Center, a beautiful old-style plaza which shows off the Spanish heritage of Aruba. There are many offerings in Paseo such as liquid fireworks display at night, a cinema and musical entertainment aside from the obvious restaurants and shops. The Village, which is actually more of an old structure thats been restored to become a shopping convenience in the middle of the Aruban hotel strip. The Village has a courtyard thats full of eye candy such as street performances, charming shops and small kiosks which show a different flavor of Aruban influences. These two are great go-to places, even when you dont plan of shopping that much, if only to people watch and take in the lively scene during your Aruban vacation.
