These elements, properly preserved and exhibited, constitute tangible evidence of one of the founding chapters of Dominican history and the continent.\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>You can read:<a href=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/abinader-inaugurara-este-domingo-la-ruta-del-encuentro-de-dos-civilizaciones-en-la-isabela\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Abinader will inaugurate this Sunday the Route of the Encounter of Two Civilizations in La Isabela<\/a><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\nBeyond its historical value, the reopening of this route aims to strengthen cultural and educational tourism in the Dominican Republic, especially in Puerto Plata, a province that has been one of the main engines of national tourism development. The authorities and project managers are betting that this initiative will contribute to diversifying the tourism offer in the area, traditionally known for its beaches, by incorporating a historical component that attracts national and foreign visitors.\n\nThe Route of the Encounter of Two Civilizations seeks to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@deultimominutotv\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@deultimominutotv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">strengthen<\/a> La Isabela Hist\u00f3rica as a mandatory reference point for those who wish to know the origins of the country and understand the process of cultural mixing that shaped the Dominican identity.
