Nature

Suriname has a strong history of conservation, and many of its distinctive landscapes have been conserved. The nation is primarily mountainous, having a coastline along the Atlantic Ocean. Tropical rainforests may be found in many sections of the nation, particularly in the southern Amazon region's foothills. This is absolutely one of the things to know before traveling to Suriname.

Since 2000, the Central Surinamese Nature Reserve has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site, making it one of the world's biggest protected tropical rainforests. Suriname's protected natural reserve encompasses around 10% of the country's land area.

The natural reserve has the highest point in Suriname, the 1230 meter high Julianatop, in addition to huge tropical rainforest regions. For flora and wildlife, the jungles are vital habitats. The jaguar, big otter, tapir, sloth, and enormous armadillo are some of the special and unique animal species that inhabit here. Hundreds of bird species and a variety of monkey species make the forest environment even more diverse and colorful.
