 The
Dominican Republic
The Dominican Republic is open for you to discover the charm of this land that sweats coffee and salt. Here, you will be able to walk with the company of the Dominican's hospitality and you will wet your feet with our meregue. You will see the day drawing toward the evening stained with the carnival’s colors. Enjoy our beaches, covered under the blue sky with its toasted sand by the warmth of a brilliant sun like these people's hearts. Throughout the years, individual towns honor their patron saints with folklore celebrations such as Fiestas de Palos, Atabales, Velaciones, and other popular festivities. The most famous is Santa Cruz de Mayo. The most important carnival is celebrated on February 27, Independence Day. That commemorates the day that The Dominican Republic became independent of Haiti. The carnival parades at George Washington Avenue Malecon in Santo Domingo.  |
