🏛️ You’d never guess this stone village is in the Dominican Republic.
Altos de Chavón looks like a centuries-old European town, but it is actually a recreation of a 16th-century Mediterranean village, built above the Chavón River in La Romana.
Walking through it feels completely different from anywhere else in the area. The cobblestone streets, stone arches, quiet plazas, art galleries, workshops, and river views make every corner worth stopping for.
In this video, we take you through some of its most beautiful spots, including the Church of Saint Stanislaus, the famous amphitheater, the archaeological museum, and the viewpoints overlooking the river.
A quick tip before visiting: wear comfortable shoes. There are several cobblestone streets and a few uphill sections. Early morning or late afternoon is the best time to explore with less heat, softer light, and a more relaxed atmosphere 📸
Altos de Chavón is perfect when you want to see a different side of the Dominican Republic, beyond the beaches.
