  • In this video, I give you a complete guide to the historic and architecturally rich municipality of Ponce. You will not only see historical buildings and iconic landmarks such as el Parque de Bombas, but I also share with you what it was like to experience the popular Carnaval Ponceño, the longest consecutively celebrated carnival in Puerto Rico where you'll see the notorious vejigantes and other flamboyant characters such as El Rey Momo.

    When I was a kid I went to the Fox movie theatre which is now that Fox hotel mentioned and another very very nice attraction in Ponce is the Ponce Museum Of Art which I highly recommend but be sure to call in advance to make sure of the hours of operation (it had suffered some damage during the earthquake and was temporarily closed for reparations).

    • @BriksTravelGuides
      @BriksTravelGuides  Před 2 lety +1

      Hey!! Thank you for the comment! Amazing that you had the experience to visit The Fox when it was a theater! Surely it was beautiful! I would have added the museum in this guide but it’s currently closed, unfortunately. Hopefully it will be open soon! 🙏🏼😄⚫️🔴🦁

      Hey Terry!! Wow! Thank you for leaving a comment and for the support! That’s awesome that you were considering visiting Ponce! It is definitely a unique and historical municipality worth visiting. Not sure when you were planning on visiting but keep in mind that it was recently heavily affected by Hurricane Fiona, so it might still be struggling from no power, no electricity or even struggle opening attractions when you visit. Hopefully it can recover quickly! 😔🙏🏼🇵🇷

Sadly we had to alter our plans because the island sustained the Hurricane damage😱 so now we have to re-work our vacation times, but nothing is going to stop us from ultimately getting there! And if youre any indication of how helpful and friendly the people of Puerto Rico are, then theres no doubt we will have an amazing time!!

    I have been to Ponce plenty of times. My mother lives there. When I went to La Guancha, it looked like the earthquake (as well as hurricanes) took a bite out of the beach. Masacre de Ponce (between Aurora & Marina) got trashed by the earthquake. When I saw that I stood there frozen.

    • @BriksTravelGuides
      @BriksTravelGuides  Před rokem +2

      The damage is definitely impressive and saddening. I’m hoping nothing else comes their way because they’ve been too strong after all of that. Hoping for better times for Ponce and the other southern municipalities affected. Thanks for your comment! 🙏🏼🇵🇷

    • @BriksTravelGuides
      @BriksTravelGuides  Před rokem +1

      Glad you liked it!! I’m honestly not sure about snorkeling or diving. My guess, based on what I know, is that it’s not great maybe non existent. Ponce isn’t really known for its beaches. However, there is a small island near Ponce called Caja de Muerto that might be good for snorkeling and diving! Maybe I’ll go for a part 2 and share that with everyone! 😄🙌🏼🇵🇷

    You can cover next time EL Panteon Nacional and natural attractions such as Lago Cerrillo, Caja De Muerto and Isla Cardona.
    La Hacienda La Mocha it is a very interesting place as well.

      Hola Juan! Thank you for those suggestions! We were going to visit El Panteon, but the carnaval was passing through the plaza and we wanted to record that. By the time we went back to El Panteon, it was closed. Hopefully at some point we can go to Caja de Muerto and those other places! 🙌🏼😄🇵🇷

      Hey Billy! That would be very interesting and I would totally be open to doing something like that. I’d need to give it some though since there are many different “realities” (for lack of a better word), that people live in PR so I wouldn’t like to cover just one. Thanks for the idea! 😄🙌🏼🇵🇷

      Hey Arcell! Thanks for leaving a comment! On my latest video of the 50 things to know before coming to PR I talk about why I wouldn’t make a video of the Naguabo Infinity Pool. In short, it is extremely dangerous and even with a detailed guide, people are at risk when visiting it. Thank you for your suggestion anyways! 😄🙏🏼🇵🇷

      Caballero, su comentario es extremadamente ofensivo y machista. Le sugiero que busque otro canal para ver, quizás alguno que toque temas de educación en ámbitos sociales y probablemente algún video del machismo y los efectos negativos que tiene esto en nuestra sociedad. Espero no haga otro comentario similar. Si tiene alguna critica de mis videos, espero que sea constructiva, no despectiva.
