A holiday to the Dominican Republic is going to be exciting. The Colonial City is only a short mile long, but it has so many things to see inside the walls. Located in Santo Domingo, this city has monuments, statues, historical buildings, plazas, parks and churches as well as museums, forts and palaces. The streets are cobbled and it takes about three hours to see everything. You could easily spend an entire day and take your time to see everything. Do not forget to see the House of Cord, which is the oldest building and the Alcazar Palace. These places are fascinating to see.
The Dominican Republic is a paradise in the Caribbean with breath taking natural wonders like waterfalls and secluded lakes for private getaways to beaches like the renowned Playa Grande, Punta Cana and Saona Island any of which are perfect to relax and forget about real life for a while. With an average temperature between 65 and 81 F it is always a good time to consider this Caribbean retreat outside of its two rainy seasons.
