Santo Domingo Beyond the Walls Tour
Description
At the scheduled time, we'll meet next to the Museum of the Royal Houses and begin this tour of Santo Domingo which will take us to discover the area around the walls of the Dominican capital. Ready? Let's go!
To begin, we'll make our way northwards skirting along the walled city of Santo Domingo to recount the history of slavery in the country. For this, we'll visit the area known as La Negrera, where the slaves entered, to be sold and distributed.
Afterwards, we'll walk around the neighbourhood of Santa Bárbara, full of graffiti and historic monuments, such as the Castrense Cathedral. We'll admire its charming façade before continuing the tour towards the Santa Bárbara Fort. At this location, we'll have some incredible views of the city. Photo moment!
The next stop on this tour will be Chinatown. We'll learn all of the interesting facts about the Chinese community that lives in Santo Domingo while we stroll around its streets full of stalls with local products.
Another spot where we'll stop will be the Modelo Market. Will you be able to resist the artisan goods? Surely not! Finally, we'll continue the tour until we reach Santo Domingo promenade, where we'll see the male and female obelisks.
Finally, we'll return to the starting point and bring this tour to an end after 2 hours together.
