Santiago de los Caballeros is the second largest city with approx.
1 million citizens.
1494 Christopher Columbus ordered to build a fort next to the
Rio Yaque river, later then it developed to the big city of Santiago de los Caballeros.
A few old ruins still exist in the village of Jaragua located approx. 7 km from Santiago.
1562 Santiago was totally destroyed by a earthquake and rebuild where it
is located today. The culture of tobacco and sugar cane made Santiago fast to a very
important economy center.
The monument (foto above), built by Trujillo, is today the sight seeing of the city.
