Great place to do some souvenir shopping. People are always friendly. You can bargain with them-I think it's expected. Most people are low key. I just keep walking past the ones that do the high pitched sales.

Once the home of the indigenous Indios, they were displaced by a hurricane years ago and replaced by venders and restaurants

I visited this man made island twice during my recent visit. The isle first emerged during a drought and city staff decided to deepen the river on both sides so the island stuck around for development:). The island is a great place to cool off...More

I love this place! You can see iguanas in the trees, crocodiles in the river, so many birds. You may spot a few cats around the market stalls. Don't miss the swinging bridges. There is something for everyone here.

The swinging bridge entrance is the best way to get here and the small gift and souvenir shops are fun to visit. Iguanas, cats and birds add to the mix.

Great for a walk and a little shopping, nice and shadey on a hot day. Lots to see but the sellers can be a little bit pushey sometimes.

This cute little island, located in the middle of the Rio Cuale and between the Zona Romantica and the center, is full of shops and restaurants for tourists. I wonder what it was like before tourists and tourism took over Puerto Vallarta?
