'Den Paradera', Dinah’s kruidentuin
In 1991 stichtte Dinah Veeris ‘Dinah's Botanic and Historic Garden Den Paradera’. Aan de oostzijde van Curaçao ligt deze kruidentuin die is verdeeld in drie gedeelten: de botanische tuin, de historische tuin en de productie met onder andere de winkel.
‘Daar waar je wilt vertoeven’
De naam ‘Den Paradera’ komt van de Indiaanse naam Paraguiri en was in het verleden de grootste kruidentuin op Curaçao, gelegen aan de oostkant van het eiland. Met de komst van de Spanjaarden wijzigde de naam in ‘En Paraldella’. Veel later kreeg deze plaats de naam ‘Den Paradera’. Het betekent: daar waar je wilt vertoeven.
