Queen Emma Bridge is a stunning floating bridge located in the heart of Willemstad, the capital city of Curaçao. The bridge is also known as the "Swinging Old Lady" due to its unique design and the way it swings open to allow boats to pass through.
The bridge was built in 1888 and has since become a popular tourist attraction. It connects the two sides of the city, Punda and Otrobanda, and offers a picturesque view of the harbor and the colorful buildings that line the waterfront.
The bridge is made of steel and is 168 feet long. It is supported by 16 pontoons that keep it afloat and allow it to swing open. The bridge is operated manually by two operators who use a crank to turn the bridge open and closed.
The Queen Emma Bridge is not only a functional bridge but also a symbol of the city's history and culture. It has been featured in many postcards and photographs and is a must-visit attraction for anyone visiting Willemstad.
