Spanish courses in Santo Domingo

As the Oldest City in the New World, the Dominican Republic’s capital city offers a hypnotic mix of merengue and bachata-infused good times against a backdrop of UNESCO-listed colonial splendour. People know how to enjoy themselves in a place founded by Bartholomew Columbus (Christopher’s brother) in 1496. Santo Domingo’s history as the first seat of Spanish colonial rule in the Americas lives on in the beautiful old buildings that can be found in and around this modern city. Sites like America’s first cathedral, the Catedral Santa María La Menor, remind you of another era. The cobblestoned Colonial District, on the right bank of the Rio Ozama is just right on a hot, sticky Caribbean afternoon.  More about learning Spanish in Santo Domingo
