About the time in Distrikt Para
Distrikt Para sits at latitude 5.42, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 16m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:36 and sunset at 06:52 local time, giving 12h 16m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (5.42, -55.33) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Distrikt Para.
Clocks in Distrikt Para stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −3 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Suriname.
