La Vega
La Vega has a great Carnival festival, especially the one on the last Sunday in February. It is famous all over the country.
It seems like any town in the Cibao-very busy during the day and quiet at night.
They have a couple of clubs that of course get so packed you can't move, and so loud you can't hear anyone speaking. The Dominicans that I mingled with at these clubs, both male and female, were young, very elegant and good looking.
They have a big cathedral that gets packed on Sundays, and the location makes for a good spot to catch an ice cream at Helados Bon and people watch.
The best hotel to stay in is the El Rey.

An event for the cibae?os!
Its unbelievable how there are towns in the DR, like La Vega, that for all practical purposes have zero international tourism and yet, they look so much better than Hig?ey or Puerto Plata. The latter is improving, but Hig?ey needs help pronto!

the problem with La Vega is that the citizens from their DONT support local investment, they prefer to go to Santiago or San Franciso de Macoris; like the song goes "I don't know why..."

Can someone give a little more information on the communities inside of La vega, as well as jarabacoa. This may sound silly but i thought jarabacoa was inside of La vega, but then i heard there were two la vegas. Can someone shed a little light?
Las Vegas is a discotec in Santiago
La Vega is a province which is like 20-25 minutes away from Santiago
I have to agreed, there isnt too much to do except for the carnival in february and i think its too wild.
Jarabacoa is part of La Vega, a city of beauty and calm..people go there to do rafting in the river and going on you reach Pico Duarte if you like camping and climbing mountains.Many travel agencies do excursions there.
good luck
Thank you for the information. I am very interested in Jarabacoa, i was wondering if anyone could tell me some places to live and anything unique to jarabacoa, their motto's specific words used only by them etc.
