Gaspar Hernández is a city and a beach in the Espaillat province of the Dominican Republic. It is touristic and full with beaches. Gaspar Hernandez is a very typical Dominican town, although it is somewhat, indirectly dependent on tourism, its main base of income is cattle and agriculture. Famous Dominican baseball coach and trainer Ramon Lora (born 1977), now coaching at Western Oklahoma State College, was born in Gaspar Hernandez. Lora's 2011 team captured the NJCAA National Championship while featuring numerous Dominican players at the American college. ==History== The current site of Gaspar Hernandez retains features of indigenous culture, mainly of the Ciguayo and Ciboney Indians from the societies of Río San Juan, Nagua and Samana. The present municipality was founded on April 5, 1907, in a place originally called Canto La Ermita. At that time the population was concentrated on the banks of the river Joba. The place was renamed Gaspar Hernández in honor of the famous priest, associate of Juan Pablo Duarte in the war of independence from Haiti. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gaspar Hernández」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
