We start with one of the most beautiful squares to see in Santo Domingo, the Parque Colón. Presiding over the square is the statue of Christopher Columbus with his finger pointing curiously towards the north. This square is usually very lively both day and night. It has bars and restaurants in the vicinity and above all many pigeons. Oh my goodness, the amount of pigeons there are here! Right in this square is also our next point to see in Santo Domingo.
