Recommended Guides and Books

To enrich your experience in Santo Domingo, I suggest reading "Santo Domingo: A Cultural and Historical Guide" by Anthony P. Maingot. This book provides a comprehensive look into the city’s rich history and vibrant culture. Additionally, "The Rough Guide to the Dominican Republic" offers practical travel tips and insights into hidden gems around the city. For a more narrative approach, "Why the Cocks Fight: Dominicans, Haitians, and the Struggle for Hispaniola" by Michele Wucker explores the historical and cultural dynamics of the island. These resources will help you make the most of your trip.

About the destination

Santo Domingo is the capital city of the Dominican Republic. Located on the south central coast of the island, it is considered the oldest European city in the Americas.The Colonial Zone is the perfect starting point for visitors to discover Santo Domingo. Here, between Independence Park and the Ozama River, you will find the first city built in the New World by European settlers. The first street in the Americas is Calle de Las Damas, featuring many examples of 15th and 16th century architecture, including the Ozama Fortress, the oldest fortress in the Americas, and the Alcázar de Colón. Of great historical interest is the Museo de las Casas Reales, the restored 16th century palace of the Spanish Court, which features a wonderful glimpse of the past. Nearby the walled city, visitors will find the Cathedral Basilica Santa Maria la Menor, considered the first cathedral in the New World. While touring the narrow streets of the Colonial Zone, visitors will feel that history comes alive here. The Zone ends at the Malecón. Also known as George Washington Avenue, El Malecón is a waterfront boulevard lined with bistros, bars and discos and is the location of the Dominican Carnival celebrated in February.Santo Domingo is a cosmopolitan and lively city full of historical colonial sites and oozing Latin charm from every street and plaza.
