Paramaribo is a 17th-18th century Dutch colonial town located on the tropical northern coast of South America. The original and very characteristic street plan of the historic centre is still intact. Its buildings reflect the trending techniques and materials of the Dutch architectural style that gradually merged with the local traditional architecture.
