Dominikaaninen tasavalta on Hispaniolan saarella sijaitseva valtio, jolla on Karibian suurin talous, monipuolinen matkailuala, kukoistavat vapaakauppa-alueet elektroniikka- ja vaatetusteollisuudelle sekä tavoite saavuttaa 25 prosentin uusiutuvan energian osuus vuoteen 2025 mennessä.
<p>The Dominican Republic packs many special things into a small space. Santo Domingo’s Colonial Zone is the first European city in the Americas. Pico Duarte is the highest mountain in the Caribbean, and hikers can reach its top. The country has two very different coasts: calm Caribbean beaches in the south and surfing beaches on the Atlantic in the north. At the 27 Waterfalls of Damajagua people climb rocks and jump into clear pools. From January to March humpback whales swim close to shore in Samaná Bay. Lake Enriquillo lies below sea level and is home to crocodiles and flamingos. Merengue and bachata music started here, and baseball is so popular that the nation sends many players to the Major Leagues.</p>
