A Hidden Gem in the Caribbean | Santo Domingo Travel Guide

| Santo Domingo Travel Guide. Want to know how fun Santo Domingo is, a place rated by National Geographic as a must-visit in your lifetime? 🧐 Today, I'm sharing this super detailed guide with you! 🏰【History and Culture】 Santo Domingo has a rich history, and the Colonial City is a must-visit! The first cathedral in the Americas is solemn and majestic, and standing in front of it, you can almost hear the echoes of history. Next to it is the Ozama Fortress, an ancient defense against foreign invaders. Take a stroll and feel the traces of time. 🏖【Beautiful Beaches】 Boca Chica Beach has fine sand and blue waters, making it a paradise for vacationers! Lying on a beach chair and sipping coconut water 🥥 is the ultimate relaxation. There are also plenty of water activities here, such as surfing and diving, so you can enjoy the ocean to the fullest. 🍱【Gourmet Feast】 Don't miss the traditional Dominican cuisine. Mofongo is made by mashing fried green plantains with various meats and spices, creating a rich and satisfying taste. There's also red bean rice, which is sweet and soft, and pairs perfectly with juicy grilled chicken for a burst of happiness! 🚗【Transportation Guide】 Taxis and buses are the main modes of transportation in the city, so remember to negotiate the fare in advance. If you want to travel freely, renting a car is also a good option. 💡【Travel Tips】 Learn about local customs and respect the local culture. Remember to protect yourself from the sun and mosquitoes, and bring your usual medications. Santo Domingo is a charming city waiting for you to explore! 💕
