Itinerary and highlights
The walking tour begins in Plaza Las Delicias, named after its breezy winds and refreshing waterfall mists. The plaza and its surrounding areas hold a rich history of the city and the island. Parque de Bombas is located within the plaza, which was previously a festival center and firehouse. You will get a view of Castillo Serralles and Cruceta del Vigia from the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe. We will show you locations of historical events that occurred in Ponce, such as the Ponce massacre and the execution of criminals at Casa Alcalde, previously a jail. We will take you to the original building where the Nationalist Party of Puerto Rico held their meetings. Experience the past and present of Ponce in an informative walking tour.
