Wooden City
With the chance to visit a World Heritage-listed inner city, tours of Paramaribo remain among the most culturally enriching things tourists can do in Suriname.Change things up with these side-trips from Paramaribo: Peperpot Nature Park (in Meerzorg), Fort Nieuw Amsterdam (in Nieuw Amsterdam) and Neotropical Butterfly Park (in Lelydorp). There's lots more to do: pause for some serene contemplation at Saint Peter and Paul Basilica, steep yourself in history at Fort Zeelandia, take in the spiritual surroundings of Arya Dewaker Hindu Temple, and make a trip to Neveh Shalom Jewish Synagogue.
