La Romana, Coastal municipality on the southeastern coast, Dominican Republic
La Romana extends along the Caribbean Sea with an elevation of 10 meters, featuring extensive beaches and tropical vegetation throughout its territory.
Founded in 1897 as an oil production center, the city transformed into a sugar production powerhouse after the construction of a major sugar mill in 1917.
The Altos de Chavón area contains numerous art galleries, craft workshops, and an amphitheater where local artists perform traditional Dominican music and dance.
International travelers can access La Romana through its airport, which connects directly with multiple cities in North America and Europe throughout the year.
