About 230 thousand people.

San Cristobal lies just west of the capital and is known as a birthplace of Dominican history, where the country's first constitution was signed. It is surrounded by green hills and rivers.
Swim in cool river spots, visit old caves with ancient rock drawings, and see grand historic buildings from the past.
The Dominican Republic's very first constitution was signed here in 1844, making the town a special place for the whole country.
Nearby rivers and the Pomier caves, full of ancient drawings, are fun places to explore with family.
