Santo Domingo Travel Guide - Dominican Republic wonderful Memories
Santo Domingo is the capital of the Dominican Republic and the oldest European city in the Americas. The old city is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Santo Domingo is the capital city of the Dominican Republic, and it prides itself in being the first European city in the New World. Founded by Christopher Columbus's brother Bartolome Colombus in 1496, it is the oldest continuously inhabited European settlement in the Americas and was the first seat of the Spanish colonial empire in the New World. For this reason, the city of Santo Domingo has a really rich historic and cultural heritage that makes any visit extremely worthwhile. Nowadays, it remains one of the most populous cities in the Central America-Caribbean area, and the main economic and commercial center of this region. The city is divided into two parts by the Ozama River. The western side is very developed economically, while the eastern part, known as Santo Domingo Este, has historically lagged behind.
The most important tourist destination of the city is the Zona Colonial or Colonial Zone, on the western bank of the river and facing the Caribbean Sea. To the west of the Zona Colonial lies Gazcue, one of the city's oldest neighborhoods, filled with old Victorian houses and tree-lined streets. The city's waterfront George Washington Avenue, knows as El Malecon, borders the Caribbean Sea and attracts many tourists because of its hotels, casinos, palm-lined boulevards and monuments. Surrounding the Gazcue area you will find the Palacio Nacional (seat of the Dominican government), the National Theater, the Museums in the Plaza de la Cultura, and the Palace of Fine Arts.
In the central part of western Santo Domingo lies the economic and commercial heart of the city, in an area known as the Poligono Central and delimited by the 27 de Febrero, John F. Kennedy, Winston Churchill and Maximo Gomez avenues. This high-income area remains rather unexplored by tourists, despite offering most of the best dining and shopping available in the city. Many of the city's most affluent neighborhoods surround the city's two main parks, the Parque Mirador Sur in the South and the Jardin Botanico in the North.
In the less developed Oriental Santo Domingo you will find other major monuments and tourist spots, such as Columbus's Lighthouse, where the explorer's remains are buried, the open caves of the Parque Nacional Los Tres Ojos, and the National Aquarium. This all makes of Santo Domingo a cosmopolitan, vibrant and bustling city with very distinct neighborhoods and ambiances, all worth a visit, and providing the most diverse cultural experiences.
Santo Domingo was, until recently, a huge city (pop. nearly 4 million people) that was split into 5 independent municipalities: Distrito Nacional, Santo Domingo Este, Santo Domingo Oeste, Santo Domingo Norte and Boca Chica. Fortunately, nearly all tourist attractions and shopping, dining and entertainment venues are located relatively close to each other in the Distrito Nacional, making it easy for you to get around and see the sights.

콜럼버스 성은 1500년 경에 스페인 양식으로 지어졌다. 정문의 문장은 그 당시의 위엄을 잘 나타내고 있다. 섬에서 나는 산호와 화산 석으로 단단하게 지었지만 지금은 망루의 일부가 허물어져 도로가 되어 있었다. 성 안에 있는 콜럼버스의 아들 디에고 콜럼버스의 집무실 겸 저택이다. 디에고 콜럼 버스는 스페인으로부터 인도 제도의 초대 총독으로 임명되어 이곳에서 기거하며 총독의 업무를 보았다. 1510년에 세워진 이 건물은 스페인의 고딕과 이탈리아의 르네상스 양식이 섞여 있다. 1955년에 보수를 해 박물관으로 개관하였다. 성안에는 콜럼버스의 광장이 있다. 그리 크지는 않았지만 여기도 콜럼버스의 동상이 있었다. 도미니카를 설명할 때 콜럼버스는 빠질 수 없는 인물이였다.를 빼고는 얘기를 할 수 없는 것 같다.콜럼버스 시대 유적은 허물어진 채 산토 도밍고 구시가지 곳곳에 있었다

Santo Domingo
This is Spanish Plaza in the old city of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. The DR is where Christopher Columbus of Genoa, Italia first landed using Spanish money to fund his trip. Clearly a smart guy. Some will tell you Columbus was Jewish, others Spanish, etc. which tells me what I always knew and that is that EVERYBODY wishes they were Italian. Anyway, Columbus' son, Diego, became the first Governor of Hispaniola and this was his palace, apparently built by native Indian slaves, Tainon Boca Chica, and others. I need to look into how so few were able to enslave so many. It's a shame.

????UFO/Alien Sex Guru Artist Museum in Sosua Dominican Republic | Castillo Mundo King.
Sosua's Bizarre Art Museum Castillo Mundo King | Dominican Republic
In Sosua, up on a hill,, there is a bizarre art museum called Castillo Mundo King. Rolf Schulz, a German artist, made this museum after he fell in love with Dominican Republic's Sosua Beach and decided to stay. He had a deep belief in UFOs/aliens, and that Sosua was routinely visited by them. Walking through this museum, which felt almost like a castle, I was able to walk through this man's life's work. It was an honor. The art was fun and odd, so I loved it.

Santo Domingo 2015
Finally finally finally... I have finally finished the video from my trip to Santo Domingo. Puerto Rico was amazing, (see that video HERE) it was more of adventure and finding different foods and culture, but Santo Domingo was where it was it. Santo Domingo is all about family,and mine is the best.
Not only are my cousins always ready to party... hey, if you're thirsty here's a beer!
Hanging out with them is never a dull moment, I hope you guys enjoy these clips that I've pulled together.
As soon as we landed we headed straight to Bocachica to eat some fried fish, yum! We got on ATV's (which I crashed), hotel pools, The Dominican Carnival, and just straight up drinking at the house.
On the last clips you'll see more of what I'm talking about, my family decided to start betting on basketball, if you missed the shot, you had to take a shot. hahhaa, nothing short of amazing.
Enjoy
