The Maroons sculpt many objects out of wood: you will find benches, trays, paddles and drums made of red mahogany. As for the American Indians, they make more 'useful' objects such as bows and arrows, basketry and, some of their more recent creations include red pottery bowls and pearl necklaces. The Hmongs people embroider; you will find artwork in the local markets, in the shops and in the villages in the forest. 18-carat gold is also sold in traditional jewellery shops! Shops are open from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm and from 15:00 pm to 18:00 pm.
