Kralendijk, Capital city in Bonaire, Netherlands.
Kralendijk extends along the western coast of Bonaire, with colorful colonial buildings facing the Caribbean Sea and Klein Bonaire island offshore.
Fort Oranje, constructed in 1639 near the harbor, protected the settlement from maritime threats and now stands as a preserved military structure.
The city center features architectural elements from Dutch colonial times, including the Commander's Residence from 1837 and traditional pastel-colored houses.
Kaya Grandi and Kaya J.N.E. Craane streets contain the main shopping areas, restaurants, and administrative buildings within walking distance of the port.
Plaza Wilhelmina serves as the central gathering space with an obelisk, World War II memorial, and traditional welcome point for Sinterklaas celebrations.
