The Colonial Zone (or Zona Colonial in Spanish) is located in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country. Located just meters away from the Rio Ozama, its origin dates back from 1498. The Colonial Zone is one of those places that you can’t miss. Its streets seem to remain in oblivion, narrow, old, but well preserved. Walking anywhere in the area you will find colonial buildings and houses from the colonial era. Here you can find stores in which to buy Dominican made art, listen to music outdoors, or spend a romantic moment impossible to forget.
