Although small in size, Paramaribo is probably the place in South America with the most exotic mix of cultures, apparent both in people you meet and buildings in the streets.
While most buildings are made from wood, for instance the Ministry of Finance on Independence Square is made from bricks, which were once used as weight for ships arriving empty from Europe. The buildings on the waterfront were all built in the 19th century, after fires destroyed the original, wooden buildings. Still now, wooden buildings run the risk of becoming victims of fire. One of the largest buildings in town is the Central Market, one of the must-sees in Paramaribo. It is full of life, vegetables and fruit sold by the heap, as colourful as a market, where Indian, Indonesian, Chinese, and African influences come together, can be.
