CACarribbean > PuertoRico > Introduction

P U E R T O  R I C O

The first "free and associated state" of the United States, is decidedly Spanish, even though the people are American citizens. High-rise buildings and cruising cars reflect its relationship with the Americas but its music, language and hybrid culture tell a different tale. Sandy beaches, glitzy hotels, ritzy casinos, structures lost in their colonial past – Puerto Rico has something for everyone, so come and enjoy your holiday!
