The Dominican Republic captures many of the images that come to
mind when describing the Caribbean: palm-fringed beaches, soaring
mountains, misty jungles, cascading waterfalls and awe-inspiring
sunsets. In fact, the Dominican Republic is a geological mini-version
of the entire Caribbean. Across its beautiful and diverse landscape
is the region's highest point, Pico Durate at 10,417 feet, and the lowest spot,
Lago Enriquillo at 135 feet. About 10 percent of the
country is protected by national parks and the island features over
5,500 species of flowers and plants.
