Jardín Botánico Nacional

One of the top tourist attractions outside of the Colonial Zone, this beautifully maintained botanical garden has over 2 sq. km. of lush vegetation native to the island. The park can be explored on foot or by tourist train. Highlights include the Japanese garden, the flower clock, aquatic plants, orchids, ferns and more. The Botanical Garden also has an Ecology Museum where visitors can learn more about the Dominican Republic’s different ecosystems. It provides information on mangrove forests, cloud forests and pine forests, as well as the island’s coastal environments. This is a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy nature.

This luxury hotel is located on George Washington Avenue (known as Malecon), directly beside the grand waterfront boulevard. It is just a few minutes walk to the nearest shops, nightlife venues and dining options. The Colonial Zone is less than 2 km away.||This..
