我们从酒店接您，然后乘车 1.5 小时到达 Las Maravillas 洞穴，这是西印度群岛第一个天然的岩石艺术品博物馆，位于一个有 10 万年历史的洞穴内。游客将有机会了解洞穴非凡的地质构造，以及克里斯托弗·哥伦布到来之前居住在这里的泰诺印第安人留下的象形文字的历史。接下来，我们将驱车 30 分钟到达 Altos de Chavon，这是一处建筑奇迹，是 16 世纪地中海村庄的复制品，高高耸立在 Chavón 河之上，这是一个神奇的旅游小镇，拥有手工艺工作室和小型生产中心，训练有素的当地工匠在这里制作陶瓷、丝网和编织纤维产品。这些作品既尊重岛屿的历史，又在设计理念和质量上大胆国际化。从生动的陶制药瓶到传统多米尼加房屋中色彩鲜艳的挂毯，工艺工作室让岛上的神话、民间传说和手工表达生动鲜活。丝网印刷工作室制作的海报、便条卡和印花 T 恤是加勒比地区最正宗的。如今，这个令人惊叹的村庄拥有许多高级餐厅、精品店、博物馆、可容纳 5,000 人的露天剧场，以及隶属于纽约帕森斯设计学院的 Altos de Chavon 设计学院。
The tour begins as we pick you up from your hotel and travel 1.5 hours to Las Maravillas Cave, the West Indies first natural museum of Rupestrian artwork, located inside a 100,000 year old cave. Visitors will have a chance to learn about the cave's extraordinary geological formations and the history of the pictographs left by the native Taino Indians that lived here before the arrival of Christopher Columbus. Next, we'll drive 30 minutes to Altos de Chavon, an architectural wonder, a 16th century replica of a Mediterranean village perched high above the Chavón River, it is a magical and touristic town, with craft ateliers and small production centers where trained local artisans execute ceramic, silk-screen, and woven-fiber products. These works are at once respectful of the island’s history yet boldly international in design concept and quality. From the lively clay apothecary jars to the brightly colored tapestries found in traditional Dominican houses, the craft ateliers keep the richness of island myth, folklore, and handcrafted expression very much alive. The posters, note cards, and printed T-shirts produced by the silk-screen workshop are among the most authentic in the Caribbean. Today, this amazing village is the site of many fine restaurants, boutiques, museums, a 5,000 people amphitheater, and the Altos de Chavon School of Design affiliated with Parson´s School of Design in New York.
