The modern Aruba Island

The Aruba Island is much talked about because of its tourist attractions and the revenue it generates from people. But the very fact that hundreds of years back from now till the 16th Century the island has been on its own with its unlimited resources available in the island itself. Aruba is said to be the home of the world’s one of the finest refineries. Gold was its primary export which was replaced by oil thereafter tourist attractions started to build up. Although it was rich with all the resources till date only tourism occupies a majority of the revenue.
