Useful Tips

If you have more time, visit the Gran Teatro del Cibao, a historic theater that hosts concerts and performances. Alternatively, head to Santiago's famous Monumento de Santiago, a towering statue dedicated to the city's patron saint.

If you have less time, consider skipping the Mercado Modelo, as it can get very crowded and overwhelming.
