What to see in Puerto Vallarta

Puerto Vallarta is a lively seaside town on the shores of Banderas Bay, where the history of the fishing village is closely intertwined with the vibrant resort atmosphere. The narrow cobbled streets of the old city, cozy cafes and street galleries create a unique flavor, and sunsets over the ocean are felt here especially solemnly. The city attracts both those who are looking for quiet walks and those who want a rich active program - all this makes Puerto Vallarta a place worth visiting again and again.

Manufactures and facilities

Among the man-made attractions, the embankment of Malecon with cafes, shops and sculptures, the Temple of Our Lady of Guadalupe is one of the most photographed points of the city, as well as the Dolphinarium of Puerto Vallarta are especially prominent. The Canopy Bay and Las Animas amusement parks offer rides and family vacations, the Puerto Vallarta botanical garden showcases collections of rare plants, and the island of Cuale and its craft markets preserve the cultural life of the old town. The Temple of Heaven and local art spaces add tranquility and creativity to the cityscape.
