Paramaribo Essentials

Paramaribo’s historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is defined by its Dutch colonial architecture and multi-ethnic heritage. This selection features the Western Hemisphere's largest wooden cathedral and the 18th-century Fort Nieuw-Amsterdam. The city's identity is further explored through the monuments of Independence Square, the bustling Centrale Markt, and the sunken hull of the German ship Goslar. From the panoramic Jules Wijdenbosch Bridge to the WakaPasi craft boulevard, these sites represent the cultural and historical heart of Suriname.
