🇩🇴 Dominican Republic: Magical Altos De Chavon Village - a Must-See! | 4K

Let's enjoy the walk in beautiful Altos de Chavón - a re-creation of a 16th-century Mediterranean–style village, located atop the Chavón River in the city of La Romana, Dominican Republic. It is the most popular attraction in the city and hosts a cultural center, an archeological museum, and an amphitheater. The project was conceived by the Italian architect Roberto Copa and the industrialist Charles Bluhdorn. The project began in 1976, when a stone mountain had to be blasted for the construction of a nearby road. Charles Bluhdorn, chairman of then Paramount Pictures parent company Gulf+Western, had the idea of using the stones to re-create a sixteenth-century style Mediterranean village, similar to some of the architecture found in the historic center of Santo Domingo. Construction was completed in the early 1980s. A Roman-styled 5,000-seat amphitheater hosts 20th century musical acts—The Pet Shop Boys, Frank Sinatra, and Julio Iglesias to name a few—while Génesis nightclub provides a popular dance venue for guests from the Casa de Campo resort nearby. Altos de Chavón overlooks Rio Chavón and the Dye Fore golf course of Casa de Campo. #dominicanrepublic #altosdechavon #casadecampo #uhdwalks 00:00 - Intro 00:15 - Altos De Chavon Fountain 04:21 - Amphitheater 25:45 - View of Rio Chavon 29:45 - Iglesia San Estanislao 34:45 - Altos De Chavon at Night
