Cable Cart - El Teleférico - Puerto Plata - Dominican Republic
This is a video I have made on my trip to Puerto Plata in Dominican Republic. I was a part of small but great group and we took a ride with Cable Cart El Teleférico to the mountain top. A cable car takes visitors to the top of the enormous flat-topped Pico Isabel de Torres. On clear days there are spectacular views of the city and coastline – go early, before the mountain clouds up. The botanical gardens at the top are good for an hour’s stroll. You'll also find a large statue of Christ the Redeemer (similar to but smaller than its counterpart in Rio de Janeiro).

This small train is welcoming, with protective glass walls, and offers the visitor a panoramic view of the city descending from the hill (which at its top is 2,555 feet (779 m) above sea level). It is one of the more picturesque and impressive excursions for a tourist visiting the country.

Cable Car - Christ Redeemer - Isabel De Torres, Puerto Plata
2017.01.31, My Caribbean Cruise Ship Carnival Sunshine docked at Amber Cove, in the Dominican Republic, on this nice weather Tuesday. At the transportation terminal, I got a Taxi, and my driver Anour, agreed to take me south of the town of Puerto Plata where the Cable Car goes up the mountain of Isabel de Torres (elevation 781 meters), to the Christ the Redeemer Statue, and then wait for me to take me back. This adventure is not a Carnival sponsored tour or excursion. Up top, it was understood between the driver and I, that I would be exploring the tropical gardens and take in the views. Give yourself 1-2 hours. (No need for a guide.) I was cruising with 9 other people, but I could not find anyone to join me; so I went alone. I paid $45 round trip for the Taxi and $8 for the Cable Car ride. The cable length is 2,730 meters. The Taxi ride was less than 30 minutes one way. The Cable Car ride was just under 9 minutes one way. There was a line on both rides; less than 45 minutes total. Clouds will occasionally block visibility on the summit, but the views are incredible. I felt safe. I like adventures, so I definitely recommend this if you are at Amber Cove. If you are thinking about zip lining at Amber Cove, you would be better off going on this adventure!

Teleférico Puerto Plata Cable Car Subiendo
HISTORIA
En el año 1970, en la Montaña Isabel de Torres, en lo alto de la fortaleza, se instaló El Cristo Redentor, con miras a un mayor atractivo turístico.En junio de 1971, se comenzó la carretera de El Cupey hacia la cima de la montaña y fue construida con la finalidad de facilitar y ayudar a movilizar las maquinarias o equipos destinados a la construcción del Teleférico.
El Gobierno Dominicano firmó con la empresa Italiana Ceretti e Tanfani para el suministro de los equipos que luego instalarían en el Teleférico, iniciando los trabajos en 1972 las obras civiles.
El Funicular se encuentra instalado en la Loma Isabel de Torres de la ciudad, es del tipo va viene, y consta de tres cables en cada lado, dos cabina, dos estaciones y una torre de sostén de los cables.
En el año 1973 se construye el Jardín Botánico, los jardines y las fuentes.
A finales de 1974 todos los equipos estaban instalados y se estaban haciendo los viajes de pruebas, para esa prueba hubo un tiempo de duración de seis meses.
La instalación del Teleférico que fue básicamente de atractivo turístico, ha dado resultados a la ciudad de Puerto Plata y al país, por ser el único Teleférico del Caribe, y ha sido visitado por turistas de todos los continentes.
Al llegar a la base superior, hay 2 nombres bordados en flores que representan las iniciales de los Reyes Católicos de España, Fernando e Isabel (símbolo de la Colonización de América), este símbolo representa a la ciudad de Puerto Plata.
Esta atracción nos da gran importancia como país, por su exótica belleza natural y su extenso Parque Nacional, que con su verdor se conjuga con el mar y lo hace aún más bello, desde el Teleférico podemos ver el majestuoso contraste.
El domo que conocemos como la base donde hoy se levanta la estatua del cristo redentor sobre la loma Isabel de Torres, es en realidad una fortaleza, o más bien fue construida con ese propósito: fortaleza antiaérea para unos y 'caja de píldora' (Pill Box) para otros. Construida por Trujillo para proteger la ciudad de posibles incursiones extranjeras.
Las aspilleras estaban dotadas de artillerías antiaéreas, desde los diferentes flancos. En la superficie donde hoy se erige la estatua del cristo, estaba una compuerta hexagonal por donde, desde el interior, se sacaba un cañón o algún armamento capaz de contrarrestar ataques de diferentes tipos, marítimos, aéreos o terrestre; además, por la panorámica que dominaba, la hacía perfecta para la vigilancia de todo el litoral.
Estratégicamente, la fortaleza estaba cubierta de hierbas, para, por su forma de cúpula, hacerla confundir con una colina. Pero resulto inoperante. Dadas las circunstancias del clima que impera en ese ambiente, el grado de nubosidad continua, no permitía la visibilidad y la vigilancia constante.
El arquitecto Cristian Martínez fue quien presento la idea de instalar un funicular para ascender a la cima de la loma, y en el año 1972 el entonces presidente Dr. Balaguer, da la orden para que comiencen los trabajos de construcción. Un año más tarde la compañía Italiana Cerretti Tanfani comienza la instalación del teleférico de Puerto Plata, terminando la obra en 1974.
Después de seis meses de pruebas, el 19 de julio del 1975 la obra fue abierta al público, y ese mismo año fue inaugurada.
Ya para el 1973, el ingeniero Benjamín Paewonsky fue encargado de convertir toda la zona de la cima en un jardín botánico.
