The first hospital of the New World now is a neglected ruin right in the colonial area of Santo Domingo - easily accessible and crowded by pigeons.
Already here, there were many pigeons around. As we explored the ruins, of which not much remains but a few high walls, some beautiful arches and columns, we had to be careful with the pigeons: they were everywhere, flying over our heads while only narrowly missing them. Upon closer inspection, the walls were pockmarked with holes gladly used by the pigeons for a small home. They especially liked the central area, with only wooden beams instead of the ceiling - causing light falling nicely on the walls. But how much nicer these ruins could be! Clean the ruins, do some restoration, add protection, ask an entrance fee, and it could well be one of the main attractions of the city. Right now, though, it certainly has an altogether special charm for the passer-by who happens to tumble upon the ruins of the Hospital San Nicolás de Bari.
