Origin of the Name of La Romana
|
|
|
|
Close to the current marina in La Romana there was a shop which had a romana (steelyard balance) to weigh the goods, when the people of that time went to the place where the shop was located, they used to say "I'm going to la romana", which is where the current name of La Romana comes from.
