The area has a great historical treasure, with buildings dating back to the 1600s, the Amber Museum includes samples of ancient fossils, some worth up to $50,000. We will also visit the cable car located at the top of Isabel de Torres Mountain (2,555 feet or 855 meters above the sea), this cable car offers a beautiful panoramic view of the sea and the surroundings of Puerto Plata. It is one of the most picturesque excursions and impressive things that a tourist can get during their visit to the Dominican Republic.
The top of the mountain is surrounded by botanical gardens, a statue of Christ (similar to the one in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), plus, of course, the stunning views of Puerto Plata and the surrounding ocean.
Fort San Felipe (San Felipe Fort) is located on a small peninsula in the Bay of Puerto Plata, the Fort is, in fact, the only vestige of Puerto Plata's colonial past. Where you can look inside a small historical museum, and the small cell in which the hero of Independence, Juan Pablo Duarte, was briefly imprisoned.
