After eating you'll head to the seafront along "El Esplanade," a thick wall built along the coast offering wonderful views of the Caribbean Sea. During the Santo Domingo City Tour you'll also see modern buildings like Palacio de Bellas Artes, Teatro Nacional, and Palacio Presidencial, showing off the wonderful combination of old and new that Santo Domingo has to offer.
