Centro Cultural Eduardo León Jimenes

Great experience, we went with kids and they enjoyed everything. Like to learn about our origins and would love to go back.

Really nice. The private collection is quite extensive, with a big range of art pieces (no pictures can be taken in that room tho). Otherwise, the other section was quite informative with a lot of history and art as well. Note: the second floor was closed due to a new exhibit in the works. Highly recommend a few hours to stop by and see amazing local art, alongside learning about local history and culture.

A Santiago cultural gem! Stunning modern architecture houses exceptional exhibits focused on Dominican art & history. The permanent collection is profound, & rotating shows are always intriguing. Knowledgeable staff & excellent guided tours enhance the experience. Serene atmosphere invites contemplation. Don't miss the library or auditorium events. Essential for understanding Dominican identity. Beautifully curated, impeccably maintained, and truly enlightening. A must-visit for art lovers & history buffs. Free admission (check hours) makes it accessible. Highly recommended!

This is one of the best art center and museum in the Dominican Republic. Founded by one of the richest family, which make their extraordinary incomes with production and selling of world famous Dominican cigars. But each Dollars they win with your smoking pleasure it's worth to see in this nice place. The architecture is a little bit modern from the last century and from outside it's look like a supermarket ... but inside they have 2 levels of exhibition. The ground floor has a very nice permanent exhibition about the island Hispaniola and the DR too. Also there is one room for the collection of Centro Leon. At the second level they have monthly changing special exhibitions of several artists. Sometimes they make a large one about all the actual art in DR. The Centro Leon has also a nice museum shop and a good restaurant too. Due the month there are several evening events for the local in-crowds and pseudo-bohemians. But you as an worldtraveller will enjoy the fine and quiet place!

A truly amazing art gallery and place to spend the day with the family. They have five or six galleries as well as a bird sanctuary, water fountain, cafe and places where you can picnic or take photos.

The is a great place to visit 😊 there is art and history 😀 and they have a restaurant and outdoor seating with lots of shade

This review is regarding the food in the cafeteria. Delicious. We had the pasta and a wrap and it was on point! So even if u don’t visit the museum you can always stop by and hve lunch, dinner or a drink.

It was nice and quiet. The gift shop is a expensive. I would avoid it. It's small. Only a couple of exhibits.
