Los Tres Ojos National Park
The 'Three Eyes' park, on the east bank of the Ozama River, is a
surreal experience for visitors. The park is actually a series of
huge natural caves on different levels, containing fresh water
lagoons. One is a sulphuric lake rumoured to be bottomless, which
is contained in a volcanic crater. The caves are festooned with
stalactites and stalagmites. The pre-Columbian Taino Indians used
the site for religious ceremonies.

Language
Spanish is the official language, but English is spoken
in the main tourist centres.
Money
The currency is the Dominican Republic Peso (DOP), divided into
100 centavos. Many of the hotels and restaurants in the main
tourist destinations display their prices in US dollars as well as
in Dominican Pesos, as US dollars are widely accepted and some
places will also accept Euros. The peso cannot be exchanged outside
of the Dominican Republic. Major currencies can be converted into
pesos at Central Bank approved bureaux; only 30% of the pesos
bought can be re-converted and this only if the original receipts
are produced, so it is best not to buy more pesos than you are
likely to need. Major credit cards are accepted everywhere, but a
commission is usually charged and it is recommended that you only
use your credit card at your hotel as fraud incidents have been
reported. The best exchange rates are paid on US travellers cheques
and secondly on US dollars cash and are best exchanged at exchange
bureaux (
casas de cambio). Banking hours are Monday to Friday from
8.30am to 4.30pm; some banks also open on Saturday. ATMs are
widespread.
Opening Times
Open daily, from 8am to 5pm
