Visit Marowijne

Marowijne is a region of Suriname located in the Northeast corner of the country along the border with French Guiana. Its capital is Albina, and it is known for its beautiful beaches, dense tropical rainforest, and diverse wildlife. Marowijne also has an interesting colonial history as it was one of the major sites of Dutch colonization during the 1700s.

For tourists visiting this region, there are several attractions to explore. One popular destination is Galibi Nature Reserve which is home to a large population of endangered leatherback turtles. Another amazing site to visit in Marowijne is Marie Catherina Falls which cascades down from a height greater than that of Niagara Falls!

As for historical facts about Marowijne, many locals consider 'Mofo Abe', a movement led by enslaved Africans in 1763-1767 against their Dutch colonizers, to be one of utmost importance even today - as it was instrumental in bringing about changes regarding slavery and labor rights at that time period across Suriname as well as other parts of South America .
