NEW YORK, March 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Assouline, the esteemed luxury publisher, proudly introduces Santo Domingo, a visually stunning and meticulously curated volume that invites readers on an immersive journey through the heart and soul of the Dominican Republic's vibrant capital. More than just a destination, Santo Domingo comes to life in the pages of Assouline's latest book as a fusion of past and present, where history, art, and culture converge in an electrifying atmosphere.
Santo Domingo includes contributions from David Collado, Minister of Tourism of the Dominican Republic, and cultural expert Rosanna Rivera, with photography by Aline Coquelle, offering a detailed exploration of the city's historical and cultural significance. As the oldest European city in the Americas, Santo Domingo is home to the Colonial Zone, a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognized for its well-preserved architecture and cobblestone streets. Notable landmarks highlighted in the book include; the Catedral Primada de América and the Ozama Fortress, showcasing the city's colonial heritage.
Beyond its colonial past, Santo Domingo thrives as a cosmopolitan hub where design, culinary prowess, and contemporary art flourish alongside its historic treasures. Santo Domingo delves into the city's dynamic cultural scene, highlighting iconic locations such as the Malecón, where the Caribbean breeze meets vibrant nightlife, and Plaza de España, offering breathtaking views of the Alcázar de Colón.
As the cultural and entertainment epicenter of the region, Santo Domingo has birthed legends like designer Oscar de la Renta and continues to shape the global arts and music landscape. Santo Domingo celebrates this legacy while illuminating the city's ever-evolving creative expression. From bohemian cafés to world-class dining, cutting-edge fashion to global music festivals, the city is a melting pot of creativity and a beacon of Caribbean culture.
"Santo Domingo is the historical soul of the Dominican Republic, a city that seamlessly blends past and present with unparalleled experiences for travelers," said David Collado, Minister of Tourism of the Dominican Republic. "For a prestigious publisher like Assouline to dedicate a work to our capital is a testament to its beauty and cultural significance on the world stage."
