    Jeruzalem Bazaar: Hammocks and supplies for the interior

    Hammocks for cheap
    by DSwede
    Having searched many stores for hammocks and mosquito nets, a local guy pointed me to this store. It is about 5 minutes walk past the central market, on the right side. Once you enter, you will notice that it sells almost exclusively fabrics/textiles and hammocks. But near the back of the store, it also sells miscellaneous tools and equipment useful in the interior of the country.

    Open Mon~Fri 7:30 to 4:15
    Sat 7:30 to 12:45
    Closed Sunday

    Hammocks here are of two types, Brazilian and Surinamese. Brazilian hammocks will have decorative tails/lace hanging along the side. Surinamese hammocks have plain straight edges.

    Regardless of the type, single person hammocks start at 25 SRD (compared to 60 SRD at most other stores).
    They have two-person hammocks starting at 40 SRD. Mosquito nets start at 28 SRD.
