Copa Airlines’ Destinations in the Americas Tour: Suriname
The country’s capital city Paramaribo has a history of diverse cultures that have converged in it. The Dutch colonial era left an indelible mark on the city’s architecture, particularly in the historic inner city, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The transatlantic slave trade brought African cultures to Suriname, influencing everything from music and dance to cuisine. Indian laborers arrived in the 19th century, bringing with them Hindu and Islamic traditions. Their influence can be seen in the city’s numerous temples and mosques, as well as in its cuisine. Javanese immigrants from Indonesia also added their unique cultural contribution to the country’s culture.
The city is renowned for its music scene, featuring styles like kaseko, kawina, and kadjo. These rhythms often accompany traditional dances that reflect the diverse cultural heritage. Paramaribo’s cuisine is a fusion of flavors. You can savor dishes influenced by Dutch, Indian, Chinese, Javanese, and African culinary traditions. Suriname is a religiously tolerant nation. You’ll find Hindu temples, mosques, and churches coexisting peacefully within the city. Copa Airlines flies to Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport, for their flights to Paramaribo.
