Feliz Cumpleaños a Santo Domingo / Happy Birthday to Santo Domingo. 517 years young.
The city of Santo Domingo was founded on Thursday, August 4, 1496. We have grown from a small village that has always survived even after being destroyed by natural disasters and also by human hands. We have always come back and each time stronger. Today we are a thriving bustling modern city while keeping intact the colonial cultural and historical center.
Salute to the Old Ciudad Colonial and the New Santo Domingo!
