Suriname

Suriname is a small, densely forested country on South America's north Atlantic coast, where roughly 90 percent of the land is covered by undisturbed Amazonian jungle. Dutch colonial architecture lines the capital's waterfront canals, while Indigenous, Maroon, Javanese, and Hindustani communities give daily life an unusually layered cultural texture.

About Suriname

Overview

Suriname sits on the northeastern shoulder of South America, bordered by Guyana, Brazil, and French Guiana, with a coastline on the Atlantic. Paramaribo is the capital and home to most of the population. Dutch is the official language, and the currency is the Surinamese dollar. The country is one of the least densely populated in the hemisphere, with much of its interior remaining roadless rainforest.
