940 SR - Historic Inner City of Paramaribo (2002)

Brief Description

"Paramaribo is a former Dutch colonial town from the 17th and 18th centuries planted on the northern coast of tropical South America. The original and highly characteristic street plan of the historic centre remains intact. Its buildings illustrate the gradual fusion of Dutch architectural influence with traditional local techniques and materials."
帕拉马里博的古内城

"帕拉马里博位于南美洲热带地区北海岸上,曾经是17世纪至18世纪时的荷兰殖民地。帕拉马里博城内古老的市中心仍然保持着昔日那富有创意、极具特色的街道布局。内城的建筑物依然在向世人展示着荷兰建筑风格与当地传统建筑方法和建筑材料的逐步融合。"
