From the Dominican Republic World / Places

Plaza de España

Plaza de España opens out below the Alcázar de Colón near the Ozama River. The broad space lets the palace and former waterfront quarter read together.

Why go

The plaza supplies the wide view that the palace rooms cannot. Standing here, you can see the Alcázar’s position above the square and then continue through the neighboring colonial streets. It is a useful outdoor counterpart to the palace museum and gives a clearer sense of the river-facing side of the historic center.

What to look for

  • The Alcázar rising above the square
  • The open riverfront side of the Colonial City
