The 3 Eyes National Park

The 3 Eyes National Park (Los Tres Ojos) is an open-air limestone cave system in Santo Domingo Este, inside Mirador del Este Park. Formed by ancient cave collapses and tectonic fractures, the site features three subterranean lagoons—Lago de Azufre, La Nevera, and Lago de las Damas—plus access by a small rope-pulled boat to a fourth, open-air lagoon called Los Zaramagullones. The name “Three Eyes” refers to the three main interior pools; the fourth is outside the cave chamber. Wikipedia

Visitors descend carved stone stairways into the caverns, where light shafts illuminate turquoise water, stalactites and rock walls. It’s a compact, easy-to-navigate attraction that most travelers see in about 1–2 hours, including the optional boat ride to the fourth lagoon. Expect lots of stairs, so wear comfortable footwear. Lattes and Runways

Located on the city’s east side, the park sits about 10–15 minutes by car from the Colonial Zone, making it a popular add-on to city tours or a quick nature break within the capital. Swimming is not allowed in any lagoon. Dominican Abroad

Hours & fees: Listings commonly show ~8:30/9:00 AM to ~5:30 PM daily (last ticket mid-afternoon), with entrance around DOP 200 for foreigners / DOP 100 for locals, and a small extra fee for the boat to access the fourth lagoon. (Exact policies can vary—check on arrival.)

Why it’s special: you get a unique blend of geology, striking colors, and city-side convenience—great for photos, families, and anyone wanting a nature highlight without leaving Santo Domingo.
