Sosua in the Dominican Republic honours Jewish Community
Parque Mirador provides a new oasis in Sosua
In what was a fairly unattractive car park, new life has been
breathed into Sosua. A new park overlooking the ocean on the north
coast of the Dominican Republic, named Parque Mirador, Sosua, was
inaugarated on Friday at the end of the 'street with no exit' (Calle sin
salida), where the well known Waterfront Restaurant is located.
The opening ceremony was performed by Ilana Neumann, the
Mayor of Sosúa, and was attended by representatives of the Jewish
community, the founders of this beach town, in whose honour the park has
been built. The beautiful park features a bar,
restaurant, a Star of David at the centre and several seats.From these
seats you have a beautiful view over Sosua bay.
Close to the park, you can find a synagogue and small but very
interesting museum charting the history of the Jewish Settlers who were
given refuge in Sosua following World War II. The West Indies Real
Estate Office is also close by in Calle David Stern.
