Travel

Authentic cultures, an enchanting nature and unique people from many different origins. That is what every traveler who visits Suriname will experience with absolute certainty. The diversity of people from various parts of the world who retained most of their original customs and habits, mark Suriname with a cultural blend and it is a multiethnic, multicultural, multilingual, and multi-religious country and probably one of the most colorful and unique societies in the world. Most of the descendants of the different ethnic groups preserved their cultural identity and today one can witness Dutch architecture, Hindu traditions, Javanese costumes, Chinese dances, African rites and Amerindian folklore in different parts of the country. Paramaribo is the capital city for the Republic of Suriname, South America’s smallest independent country. Suriname is known for its pristine rain forest, exotic plants and animals, large rivers and stunning mountains in the southern part of the country.
