Description
El Malecón is a seafront, located on George Washington Avenue, known for being one of the emblematic spots of Santo Domingo. This fourteen kilometer boulevard, which runs through almost half of the city, is bordered on one side by the shores of the Caribbean Sea, and on the other side by hotels and a wide variety of restaurants.
Down its trail there are a few important historical monuments and touristic places, such as the Juan Barón square, El Obelisco Macho, El Obelisco Hembra, and the Monument to Fray Antón de Montesinos.
