The parque Iberoamericano (Ibero-American Park) in Santo Domingo is now ready for the Christmas season.

A good place to take the family to enjoy the Christmas decorations especially with kids. The park itself was recently inaugurated, so everything looks nice! Go now before it becomes a mess!!!

As there is no option for "Totally and utterly barking mad idea in a country with an electricity crisis", I'm unable to respond to this survey.

Had to give it a good vote as the whole thing is sooooooo absurd !.

Agreed, a total waste of energy, tacky beyond belief, never seen something/anything quite like it anywhere, perhaps the odd house in America but the scale of it all is amazing.

It's 100% Dominican, it's why we live here, it's why I personally am amazed everyday...
The kids will love it !, Merry Christmas !!.

La Navidad Brillante del alcalde Salcedo - Peri?dico Digital Dominicano - 7d?as.com.do

Bofetadas por todos los lados: al buen gusto, a las finanzas p?blicas, al bolsillo de cada contribuyente y al medio ambiente que tendr? que cargar con el despilfarro que implica esta ocurrencia del alcalde.

La Navidad brillante es un monumento a lo kitsch y no tiene ninguna ense?anza cultural o altruista sino mucho lacayismo cultural y mucho mercantilismo, pues de alguna manera las empresas patrocinadoras cobran sus aportes.

The park becomes visible on the right at around 2:50 minute:
