Columbus Lighthouse in Santo Domingo

Lighthouse Monument Christoph Kulumbus

03/2008 In Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, or Dom Rep for short, you can find many relics from the times of the conquest of the "new world." Here on the island of Hispaniola, Christopher Columbus even had a palace. A lighthouse in the style of a prefabricated building was built as a memorial to him. It's not pretty, but it didn't bother the children with the kites.
