What I love about the the towns in Dominican Republic is how you can always see huge amounts of vegetation on surrounding hills and mountains from the streets. You know how much I enjoy your photo tours Yumnuk. Thanks a lot for posting, cant wait for more.

San Francisco de Macorís


San Francisco de Macorís is considered as the third most important city in the Dominican Republic and is also the capital of the Duarte Province. It has had a very active role in the shaping of Dominican history, as it is known as one of, if not the most, politically active cities in the country. It is located in the northeast portion of the island, in the Cibao (Serie56) region. It is the home town of the author Hilma Contreras and home town of the world renowned playboy Porfirio Rubirosa.

The name San Francisco de Macorís comes from a fusion of the name of Saint Francis, patron saint of the Franciscan Order (a religious organization from Italy that had come to this territory during colonization) and the territory's old name, which is Macorix.



Duarte is a province of the Dominican Republic. It is named after Juan Pablo Duarte, founder of the Dominican Republic.
