Some of the best shopping in Puerto Plata can be found just by wandering around the city. The streets are teeming with activity and dotted with a variety of gift shops such as the Grand Factory, a large jewelry shop with original amber work made by the owners of the store. In the Central Park area there are bazaar-like shops such as Casa Nelson, where the locals get daily items for reasonable prices. Dominican sweets, marmalades, foods and quality rums can be found in Puerto Plata supermarkets. Further from the coast in the hills of the city there is a handicraft market with vendors of such crafts as amber and larimar jewelry, basketwork, pottery, ceramics, wood sculpture, and Haitian painting. Some of these vendors will visit the major hotels in the evenings, selling their wares.
