At the beginning of February 2018 the newest museum was inaugurated in La Vega, the Museo Carnaval Vegano. This museum, supposedly one of seven of its kind in the world, is located in a recently renovated two-story historic building next to the Parque de las Flores.
The museum demonstrates the history and development of the La Vega carnival, considered the best in the Dominican Republic and one of the oldest in the Americas (started in the early 1500's).
