Alto Vista Chapel is a small Catholic chapel that stands on the hills above the north shore of the sea and to the northeast of the town of Noord, on the island of Aruba, 27 km north of the coast of Venezuela. The church is painted on the outside in stark bright yellow, making it a conspicuous religious monument for people to visit. The present Chapel of Alto Vista is completed in 1952 and stands in the same location as the original chapel, which is built by Domingo Silvestre, the Venezuelan missionary from Santa Ana de Coro, Venezuela, in 1750. The Alto Vista Chapel is stated to be the location where the conversion of Aruban Indians to Christianity starts (Photo by George Wilson/NurPhoto).
