This shaded street between ClubHotel Riu Merengue and ClubHotel Riu Bachata is lined on both sides with vividly-painted, clapboard shacks. You can easily while away a few hours browsing the alluring displays of rum, coffee, cigars and amber jewellery. And if you’re looking to bring a splash of colour into your living room, keep an eye out for the Limé dolls – these fetching faceless statues are impossible to find outside the Dominican Republic.
