On today's video we go to the historically amazing town of Lares in the mountains of the west side of Puerto Rico and we go to see an amazing street art coalition, we tried never heard of before Ice Cream flavors, authentic puertorican fritters and more!

Love it man! The way you show the videos with so much pride and love for the Puerto Rican 🇵🇷 culture truly makes these videos so entertaining to watch. I’d love to visit Lares some day it looks absolutely breathtaking. My wife’s family is from caguas.. I don’t know if there’s some plazas their to make a video but that would be nice too. But yes another video part 2 of the beautiful Lares!! 🙏

Two things that jumped out at me were mi querido y estimado Jose Feliciano, y mi querido y estimado Pedro Albizu Campos. Pedro Albizu Campos is kinda like Nikola Tesla to me ---- both AMAZING men who have kinda been forgotten in the history books. When I first found out about Albizu, I was absolutely amazed and saddened at the same time. To me he is the most amazing, brilliant, and patriotic Puerto Rican ever, in the history of Puerto Rico. His life and story is amazing, sad, and impactful. He instantly became my hero, and I assumed most people felt the same way. It totally surprised me how so many people see him as a villain. I've been to Lares, but I didn't digest it the way I should have. I need to prepare more for my visit, and be ready to really explore and appreciate what's there. Videos like this will help me do a better job next time.

Great job with this video of my family's hometown. Sadly almost all family members have moved away since my mother's passing years ago. I still have fond memories of my youth there. Always try to visit every few years. Would like to see future videos of the Fiestas Patronales in Lares, the weddings, and successful businesses there like the new "Luxury Coffee Bar" near downtown. Very few people know that Lares was supposed to be the capital of Puerto Rico before the Spaniards invaded. Maybe a video showing the celebration of "El Grito" would be cool. The Grito de Lares" is a yearly celebration of the historical event of September 23, 1868, when an armed uprising known as "El Grito de Lares" brought together roughly 1,000 rebels who fought against oppressive Spanish colonial rule.

Mi hermoso pueblo. Mano, que orgullo me da este video. Me encanta tu canal, apenas lo descubrí y el contenido es espectacular. Conoces la historia a perfección y eso da muchísimos puntos a favor. El trabajo de cámara está fenomenal y te expresas muy bien frente a ella. Necesitas enseñar todo lo demás que ofrece Lares (La Rambla, Café Oro, El Cepo, Hacienda Lealtad, Castañer, ect.) También me gustaría ver un video mi 2do pueblo, Hatillo. Bendiciones y éxito en tu canal!

Very informative and entertaining video! How about a Part 2 that includes or focuses on the coffee growers and producers that are in Lares and the surrounding area? In past trips to PR we've bought in the supermarkets deeeelicious coffee from Lares and other towns. Would love to see and learn more about the people who produce such a wonderful product whose aroma and flavor are so incredible.
