(Translated by Google) It’s a very beautiful church with ancient architecture Clean It’s not just a church but a tourist spot, a historic monument I invite you to visit The streets are very clean Good calm temperature I wonder how such an old building stays clean for so long Congratulations to all the people who kept the Church of God as well (Original) C’est une très belle Église avec une architecture ancienne Propre C’est pas seulement une église mais un lieu touristique, un monument historique Je vous conseil invite à visiter Les rues sont très propre Bonne température calme Je me demande comment un bâtiment aussi ancienne reste encore aussi longtemps propre Félicitations à tous les gens qui a gardé L’église de Dieu aussi bien

I strongly recommend paying the 70 pesos for entry and audio guides... Purchase tickets in the office across from the shelter with the audio guides..... Women wearing shorts are required to cover up with a small blanket n that is provided. Men remove hats.

Die Kathedrale von Santo Domingo sollte man bei einem Besuch auf jedenfall besuchen. Sehr schön restauriert und es gibt auch einen Audioguide welcher einem sehr gute Informationen bereitstellt.

Beautiful church without a doubt a must see! However: When buying tickets if you do so with dollars be very careful with the change as they will give the worst value for your dollars, it is to my surprise that the practices at this church related to money are as such, in no other place in Dominican Republic I felt that people were trying to take advantage of tourists, it is a shame on the workers or management of this place to steal money from tourist.

Well worth the entrance fee to both see and support this historic gothic church; the first one in the Americas. Built in 1529. Audio tours are available for rent. No videos allowed, only photographs. Also, out of respect for the culture, as this is a Catholic church, we were kindly allowed to borrow a clean cloth to cover our bare shoulders and legs.

Es war ein super tolles Erlebnis. Man denk gar nicht was Menschen so erschaffen können. Und das vor so langer Zeit. Einfach noch toll anzusehen. Man sollte sich aber genügend Zeit nehmen um hier alles anzuschauen und auf sich wirken zu lassen. Einfach nur Daumen hoch. Die Bilder bleiben im Kopf!

Beautiful cathedral, dating back 500 years, right next to the park with the Christopher Columbus statue.

Absolutely beautiful Gothic style church. The architecture was amazing, and the presentation within was mesmerizing. They do have audio selections for a multitude of languages allowing you know what you were visualizing.

We did not go inside but It looks beautiful from outside. It's next to the Columbus Park.

What a beautiful place — had the pleasure of attending a wedding here. Having seen many European cathedrals — have to say, this one’s unique and has the Americas’ spice to the European flavour

Die Kathedrale von Santo Domingo ist ein kleines Juwel mitten in der Stadt das von außen eher unbeeindruckend wirkt. Für 100 Pesos kann man die Kirche besichtigen und bekommt einen Audio Guide (englisch) dazu. Die Kirche ist die einzige in Amerika mit gotischem Einfluss und früher wurden hier auch die Überreste von Christoph Kolumbus aufbewahrt. Man kann die Besichtigung wirklich empfehlen.

Beautiful architecture to see here. They have earphones and a selfguided tour to see the different parts of the church.

Sehr beeindruckend, mit elektronischem Guide wird alles sehr gut erklärt

Breathtaking cathedral, the oldest Cathedral in the western hemisphere. Gothic archecture with native stone. So unique and in such great condition.

Nice historical building

Very cool historical monument. A must see in Santo Domingo. The architecture was amazing and with the 14 chapels to see on the sides. It was a memorable experience.

It was beautiful, must visit in Santo Domingo, if you aren't dressed appropriately they have cloth for you to wrap in.

It’s beautiful cathedral! Entrance of 100 pesos with audio guide or 80 pesos without audio guide

Beautiful ancient church. Very useful and cool opportunity to listen guide explication

Great space, beautiful and well preserved historic building. Free entry for locals or 50 bolivars to foreigners. Do remember it is still a working church. During my visit, a wedding was taking place, that added a special touch. Remember to walk outside at the back of the Cathedral as the building itself is amazing.

This is must visit atracción in Santo Domingo

Can I give NO Stars.....??, you have to PAY to get in.....???!!!!, this is a CHURCH......since when you have to pay to "visit the Lord's house"???? I can't say how it looks in the inside because me and the other 6 people in our group refused to pay...., if we wanted to offer a gift while inside (we were wanting to do so), that's on us, but a fee to go inside..... Nope! Awful experience Dominican Republic.... take advantage of your beautiful nature and beaches but NOT your churches, that's plain WRONG!!!!

Beautiful architecture and full of history and old artifacts. Bad service from the front entrance security lady she needs to learn how to talk to people without being rude.

Beautiful. Small entrance fee. There was a wedding (or similar event) at the moment of my visit so the entrance was not permitted.

You can't go in as a tourist on sundays. Mass for believers is at 12. If you go in you have to stay for the entire mass and be properly dressed (ie no shorts.

(Translated by Google) Very nice place, I liked the experience (Original) Muy bonito lugar, me gustó la experiencia

You have to visit this beautiful place . A must

It was very beautiful. I'm glad they are restoring the church. Absolutely amazing!!

Tour guide was great, it was just too hot.

You can get additional audio guides at the ticket counter. Beautiful church.

Very cheap entry, around 2$ incl audio guide. Nice building but not as impressive as other old cathedrals. But in my eyes a must visit in Santo Domingo, since it is the oldest cathedral of Continents of Amerika.

Santo Domingo Cathedral, better known as Catedral Primada de América (America's Prize-winning Cathedral), was declared the first cathedral in the New World in 1546. This splendid minor basilica is dedicated to Santa María de la Encarnación. If you have your legs uncovered, they will lend you a loincloth at the entrance to hide your knees. Gentlemen, don't forget to uncover your heads when you enter the cathedral. Enjoy the visit!

Beautiful cathedral close to 500 years old. Audio guide was useful to appreciate the history. Was nice and cool inside so nice to escape the heat.

(Translated by Google) It is a true blessing to be able to participate again in the Eucharistic Celebration in the cathedral, the spiritual atmosphere makes you feel that everything will go well, that we are not alone in this sea of ​​uncertainties caused by the pandemic. Lord, we trust you! (Original) Es una verdadera bendición poder volver a participar en la Celebración Eucarística en la catedral, el ambiente espiritual te hace sentir que todo saldrá bien, que no estamos solos en este mar de incertidumbres provocadas por la pandemia ¡Señor en ti confíamos!

A very beautiful gothic church. There are audio guides in multiple languages to walk you through the different parts of the church.

It is very nice. Peaceful.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful first cathedral of America. (Original) Hermosa catedral primada de América.

Beautiful church, but I found it offensive that they forced me to wrap a blanket around my waist AND over my shoulders because I was wearing shorts and a tank top. They were very rough about it, literally touching my body to forcibly put the blankets on me themselves (I think because we didn't speak the same language so they couldn't communicate with words what they wanted me to do). I felt very violated by the manhandling for one thing, and by the inference that somehow my bare legs and arms were offensive to God.

The cathedral of Santo Domingo is the oldest in America built in 1504. The architecture of the building of the Cathedral of Santo Domingo is characterized by Gothic style with ribbed vaults, solid walls and three doors, two of them gothic in contrast to the third and main Plateresque Gothic style. It is located between the streets Archbishop Meriño and Isabela La Católica, next to the Colón Park; leaving its main door to the west, facing the Archbishop Meriño street, almost corner Archbishop Nouel. If you visit the city for the first time or if you live there, it is an essential stop.

Pity that poor locals or humble ones have no access to these areas!

The Santo Domingo Cathedral is a lovely building, and sits on a beautiful square full of local people enjoying the afternoon.

Is only $1 so is worth it. It doesn't take long to walk around and see everything that there's to see. It has an interesting architecture.
