Capital

Suriname's capital is Paramaribo. There are many locations in the city that you should see. St. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Paramaribo, for example, is a wooden cathedral. The cathedral is likely the world's highest wooden cathedral and South America's largest wooden structure. The church, which was once a theatre, is painted yellow and grey.

Furthermore, the capital's historic city center is the city's oldest component. Because of the structures from the colonial era, the center is also known as "The Wooden City." Since 2002, the old city center has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List. You must be in Paramaribo if you wish to shop in Suriname. There are various shops and boutiques here where you may buy everything.

The Saoenah Markt is Suriname's largest market. This Javanese food store was created by the Abas family. Then there's the Africa Museum. Suriname's museum is quite new. The museum depicts Surinamese of African ancestry' African history. The museum aspires to provide a long-term ethnological contribution to African cultural heritage via a variety of activities, archaeological digs, and art figures.
