Parque Central Independencia

The Central Park Independencia is considered one of the most precious symbols of the city of Puerto Plata and has great historical value for Dominicans. It was built by the military and president Gregorio Luperón during the government he led in 1879. Parque Independencia–also known as Parque Central–is the centerpiece of Puerto Plata city, framed with royal palms and hugged on all four corners by pastel-colored Victorian-era architecture. The white Catedral del Apóstol San Felipe towers over the square, where Puerto Plateños relax throughout the day and night with friends and family. You’ll find a café, ice cream parlor, and restaurant around the square, while the city’s key museums are just a couple of blocks away.
