INTRODUCING PUERTO RICO
Puerto Rico packs tremendous diversity into a relatively small space. From exquisite coral reefs and white-sand beaches to lush rainforests, desert-dry coastal plains, and a rugged mountain spine, this isle enraptures with physical beauty. Past and present intertwine too, as pre-Columbian sites, massive castles, and charming colonial buildings contrast with hip restaurants, hotels, and nightclubs. Spanish-speaking yet inarguably American in style, the people are equally diverse, reflecting a potpourri of bloodlines – indigenous, African, and European – and a creativity expressed in colorful culture and arts.
