My childhood imagination dreamed up visions of explorers building this village to stake their claim on the island. &nbsp;As I came to learn however, this mythical place came into being not by the hands of centuries old explorers but from the creative minds of Italian master designer and cinematographer, Roberto Coppa &amp; his partner on this project, Charles Bluhdorn in the late 1970s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Blasphemy! I thought at first. How could this be? How could I have missed the \u201cman behind the curtain\u201d for so long? How had I let my imagination take such a firm grip on my perception of the history here at Altos de Chav\u00f3n?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Simple. Extraordinary measures were taken to bring Mr. Coppa &amp; Mr. Bluhdorn\u2019s vision, of a medieval European village, into existence. All it takes is a step&nbsp;through the giant handcrafted doorways or a stroll along the carved stone sidewalks to realize that when it came to the fabrication of Altos, no detail was spared. Indeed, true artisans and craftsmen were put to work here.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/casadecampoliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/altos_de_chavon_church-2.jpg?resize=650%2C433&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"altos de chavon church\" class=\"wp-image-43732\" title=\"altos_de_chavon_church\" height=\"433\" width=\"650\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>The St Stanislaus Church in Altos de Chav\u00f3n<\/strong><br>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">A sense of place hangs thick in the air at Altos de Chavon.

The Roman amphitheater transports you to another time\u2026 that is until Enrique Iglesias steps on stage and serenades you back to the present day.
