Just across the Suriname River from the nation's capital of Paramaribo, the small town of Nieuw Amsterdam has a population of around 5,650. The main cultural attractions in Nieuw Amsterdam include an 18th-century fortress and local museums relating to the complex human history of the area. Small restaurants sell primarily Javanese-style food in the main town center, which has a few architectural highlights in the form of colonial-era houses and a Hindustan mosque. When using our Suriname online trip itinerary planner, you're building your holiday based on your own interests, visitor reviews, and the informed opinions of our well-traveled writers.
