This place is known for its public writers, who were in charge of writing cards and letters for illiterate people

This square is very old and pleasant. In the 19th century, Plaza Santo Domingo was best known for its public scribes, who wrote cards and letters for the many illiterate people. Today, the public scribes have been replaced by cheap printing shops, which sell wedding and baptism invitations, but also fake school and university diplomas and titles. For the inhabitants of the capital, Santo Domingo also refers to the church bearing this name, located in the square.

Une place presqu'aussi vaste que le Zocalo

Sur cette vaste place l'église San Domingo interpelle avec sa haute tour coiffé de talavera à dominante jaune et verte.
Ne pas manquer la chapelle de l'expiation , reste du couvent des Dominicains établis vers 1530.

Moins touristique que le Zocalo, cette place où bat le cœur colonial de la ville offre des bâtiments tels que l'église baroque, le Palais de l'Inquisition, l'ancienne Douane. Ne pas manquer le Portales de los Evangelistas avec ses imprimeurs qui officient sur de petites machines d'un autre âge.
