Centrale Markt, Market hall at Waterkant, Paramaribo, Suriname
The Centrale Markt spans two floors, with fresh food products on the ground level and retail goods on the upper floor.
Construction of the market began in 1959 following a city council decision, and the structure was completed in 1969 with European Union funding.
The market displays the multicultural nature of Suriname through its varied selection of local foods, products, and trading traditions.
Vendors conduct business from Monday to Saturday, with morning deliveries arriving by trucks and boats along the Suriname River.
The building features a double-arched roof design that maximizes air circulation despite the strong currents and tidal variations of the adjacent river.
