Santo Domingo
Santo Domingo is the first city of the New World and the vibrant capital of the Dominican Republic. Its Colonial Zone, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, preserves the first cathedral, university, and fortress of the Americas, all set among 16th-century cobblestones. Yet this metropolis of five million souls doesn't dwell in the past: the Malecón pulses with merengue and bachata at sunset, and the culinary scene ranges from street chicharrones to acclaimed restaurants. The neighborhoods of Piantini and Naco rival any Latin American capital in fashion and cocktail culture. Santo Domingo is living history that dances—a city where every corner speaks five hundred years of Caribbean culture to those who listen.
Explore Santo Domingo.
Antes de que existiera La Habana, Cartagena o San Juan, existía Santo Domingo. La capital dominicana es el punto de partida del Nuevo Mundo: la primera catedral, la primera universidad, la primera fortaleza militar de las Américas. Todas siguen en pie, todas se pueden caminar.
Pero la ciudad no se queda en el siglo XVI. Es una capital caribeña vibrante: chimi a la medianoche frente al Malecón, merengue en vivo en bares de Gazcue, cavernas con agua turquesa a quince minutos del centro. Te armamos la ruta — tú la vives.
