This is my 3rd time at the La Aurora Cigar Factory and on all three occasions, Eugenio has made me feel welcomed and has provided excellent and exceptional customer service. Eugenio Polanco is the reason why i return to this cigar factory each time i come to Santiago. This is the number 1 place to visit if visiting Santiago. Eugenio Polanco has always provided me with a good experience and i will be looking to return for the 4th time in the near future thanks to Eugenio Polanco. Keep up the good work.

This place is huge. I loved the garden (although the upkeep could use some work). Overall a good place to blow off an hour or two in a cool shaded breezy palace.

This museum is dedicated to the unique stones found in Dominican Republic, most specificallyAmber. You will only find Amber and Larimar jewelry in this store . The workmanship and the quality of the stones, however, is much superior to what you can find in other gift shops. This locale is a museum as well. The entrance of the museum is a staircase whose handrail is made of amber.It is a small but extremely interesting place, well worth a visit.
