Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Yulissa Ramos and Daniel Godwin
Below are numerous suggestions for local markets (“mercados”), restaurants, cafes, and bars/nightlife. We recommend guests stay within 5 blocks of Santo Domingo (there are A LOT of places to visit). Most people shop during the day (at the local markets/stores) and watch the parades (for Dia de Muertos) or go to restaurants/bars in the evening. Local markets ("mercados") include Santo Domingo Plaza (canopies on NW/SE sides of the church), Zocalo Plaza, Mercado "20 de Novembiere" (mostly food), and Mercado "Benito Juarez" (mostly merchandise). The primary ‘Dia de Muertos’ parade streets are on Calle Maceconio Alcala and Calle Manuel Garcia Vigil with most parades ending at the Santo Domingo Plaza.
