Colonial Zone Neighborhood Bicycle Tour
We'll meet at the indicated time on Arzobispo Meriño Street, and from this central point of the Dominican capital, we'll start cycling through the Colonial Zone of Santo Domingo.
The first stop will be at Colon Park, where we'll admire the façade of the Primada de América Cathedral. After learning about its history, we'll continue to Billini Square, where we'll see the exterior of the Casa del Tostado.
Next, we will cycle through Duarte Park to see the ruins of the Convent of Los Dominicos and proceed to the church of Las Mercedes. We will then visit the monument to Balandra Aurora and the Santo Domingo Obelisk.
Following the wall of the Old City, we will reach San José Park to see the monument to Fray Antonio de Montesinos. We will continue to Pellerano Castro Square from where Calle de las Damas, the oldest street in Santo Domingo, begins.
Finally, we will head to Plaza de España to admire the Alcázar de Colón and the area of Santa Barbara along with the ruins of San Francisco. After 2 hours of cycling through the oldest part of the Dominican capital, we will conclude the tour back at the meeting point.
