Simple facts that you did not know about Puerto Rico
It’s Not Actually a Country: Puerto Rico is actually a US commonwealth. The currency is US dollars, the head of state is the US President, and Americans don’t even need a passport to travel there.
The Cobblestones of Old San Juan Came from Spain: The blocks began to be used as road pavers in Puerto Rico in 1784. Apparently, these cobblestones are gradually being replaced by modern ones, but Calle Cristo still has the originals.
It Has Almost 300 Beaches: I particularly liked Luquillo BeachThat's were I'm from . It attracts a good mix of locals and visitors, the tides are gentle enough for swimming, and there’s a famous strip of food stalls nearby ( Kiosks) where you can get some great cheap eats.
The Coffee is Amazing: There are a number of “farm to cup” coffee shops in San Juan that grow, roast, and sell their own coffee. Many producers also offer tours of their plantations.
It Has a Pork Highway:Most lechoneras serve their food cafeteria-style, and offer other local specialties like morcilla (blood sausage) and arroz con gandules (rice with pigeon peas).
