SANTO DOMINGO (SDQ)
As the oldest continuous European settlement in the Americas, Santo Domingo is a captivating blend of 16th-century history and modern Caribbean energy. Its soul lies in the UNESCO-listed Zona Colonial, where cobblestone streets lead to the Catedral Primada de América and the Alcázar de Colón, the former palace of Christopher Columbus’s son. Beyond the historic walls, the city pulses with the rhythm of merengue and bachata. Visitors can explore the lush cenotes of Los Tres Ojos National Park or stroll the bustling Malecón waterfront. From world-class dining in Piantini to its vibrant street art, Santo Domingo is a sophisticated coastal capital.
