Sosua - Dominican Republic
Cabarete | La Romana | Puerto Plata | Punta Cana | Samana | Santo Domingo | Sosua
To
understand
why
Columbus
chose to
call
this
town
Puerto
de Plata
(Port of
Silver)
we need
only to
take a
twilight
stroll.
You'll
be
awestruck
by how
imbued
the
coast is
with
silver
hues as
the sun
sinks
into the
Atlantic
Ocean.
This
provincial
capital
has
noticeable
Victorian
style
and
colonial
relics
such as
the Fort
of San
Felipe.
Agricultural,
cattle
farms
and
tourism
create
its
strong
economy.
It also
has the
most
important
amber
mines in
the
world.
Sosua is
a
charming,
cosmopolitan
town
with
idyllic
beaches
and a
whole
host of
attractions.
It is
the most
modern
tourist
package
imaginable,
combining
the
peace
and
quiet of
the
beach
with a
bustling
nightlife.
