Panteon Nacional, Santo Domingo, Caribbean Agre The building was one of the last buildings built by the Spanish on Dominican soil. The date of the beginning of its construction is not known with certainty but some historians suppose that it was between the years 1714 and 1755 and it is attributed to Jerónimo Quezada y Garçon. It originally served as a church of the Jesuit order. Here the Jesuit priests gave mass with their backs to the congregation so that everyone, including the priests, would face the figure of Jesus Christ and the altar.
The National Pantheon has around 36 empty spaces to house future heroes. There is also an empty space without a plaque, dedicated to the unknown soldier.

Santo Domingo es una ciudad muy bonita y con muchisima historia (recomiendo guía para quienes gusten de esta parte). Lo que me gustaría destacar de este trayecto es el buen y puntual servicio del Expreso Bávaro, por solo 16 dls ida y vuelta te llevan de manera muy eficiente en un lindo bus. (Una excursión estaba más de 200!).

C'était une belle excursion, la grotte ou du moins la partie visitée était très jolie, les monuments et l'histoire de saint domingue très intéressants. Le petit restaurant très agréable.
Le seul bémol le retour avec les échanges de véhicule ou la récupération le matin 40mn avant pour repasser devant l'hôtel au final
