Taíno Park

TIME : 2016/2/18 15:28:08

This new museum, 15 minutes west of Samaná on the road to Sánchez, offers a well-done recreation of the history of the Americas and the indigenous Taíno people via a series of more than 25 outdoor fiberglass scenes, narrated in numerous languages via MP3 players.

Some 200 pieces of Taíno art made from clay, stone and wood are showcased, and a nearby shop offers locally made products with profits going towards developing the area.
