    A must-see in the Dominican Republic is the village of Altos de Chavón in La Romana, a recreation of a 16th-century Italo-Spanish village with its cobblestone streets and coral stone and terracotta block buildings. This replica was built in 1976 by Roberto Copa, a former designer at Paramount Studios, and Charles Bludhorn, an American industrialist, on a site with beautiful views of the Chavón River.

      Altos de Chavon is a village designed by film architects from Paramount Pictures. The model was an Italian village from the 16th century. The cobbled streets are lined with jewelry and craft shops.

        This reconstructed complex is a must when visiting La Romana. What we didn't find was that there was an entrance fee. But the $7 is definitely worth paying for it.
