Dominican Republic

When Columbus saw this green and hospitable island, he proclaimed, "This is the fairest land under Heaven". Everyone who ever visited the Dominican Republic will probably agree: impressive mountain ranges, white-sand beaches, palm groves, spectacular rivers and waterfalls of this island make think about a land blessed by heavens.

The Dominican Republic occupies the major part of the island of Hispaniola. This island witnessed all stages of colonization of Americas. First European settlement, Isabella, was founded here, on the nothern coast of the Dominican Republic. Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic, was the first European city in the New World.
