Hi Michael! The Cathedral in Puerto Plata at the Plaza Central is the nearest one to your hotel. You will have to go by taxi, so be sure to negociate the price before you get in the vehicle. I would advise against using the motorcycle-taxis as they are not safe. The Cathedral is splendid, having just been refurbished, with wonderful wood carved doors & stained glass. The Bishop, his Excellency Gregorio Nicanor Pena Rodrigues, is a wonderful man who speaks fluent Spanish, Italian & English. Please give him our best wishes from Roberto & Sylvia, (Canadians who winter in Costambar) Regards, Bob Graham.
