Galería de Ambar

TIME : 2016/2/18 15:28:09

Despite its unfortunate location, housed in a rundown office-like building, there are museum-quality exhibits on the history of amber mining in the DR as well as on rum, sugar, tobacco and coffee. Multilingual guides are on hand to answer any questions. Of course, the raison d’etre of the tour is the soft-sell pitch to buy the gallery’s very own proprietary cigar brand, as well as jewelry and other gifts in the ground-floor shop.
