Located on an isolated point with white lime cliffs surrounded by lagoons and marshes, Cabo Rojo's lighthouse, built in 1882, marks the southeast entrance from the Caribbean Sea through the Mona Passage into the Atlantic Ocean. Cabo Rojo's lighthouse has simple decorative elements including an unelaborated cornice that is repeated in the tower. Although originally housing two keepers and an engineer, the lighthouse was left unmanned following a 1967 renovation and automation. The old cast-iron, copper, and glass lantern still house the original illuminating apparatus, a lenticular lens manufactured by the French firm Sautter, Lemonnier and Company. Faro Los Morillos de Cabo Rojo is located on the southeastern point of Cabo Rojo, on the Morrillos Peninsula, southwest of Puerto Rico. The Cabo Rojo National Wildlife Refuge is open from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm, Monday-Friday. -

El Totem Telúrico
El "Tótem telúrico"(1992), o el tótem que surge del interior de la tierra; es una escultura monumental hecha de granito y replicas de cerámicas taínas, obra del escultor, arquitecto y ceramista puertorriqueño Jaime Suárez (1946), que rinde tributo al descubrimiento del nuevo mundo por parte de navegantes europeos, y al encuentro de dos culturas. Mide unos 40 pies de altura (12.192m) y se encuentra ubicada en la Plaza de Quinto Centenario, cerca del cuartel de Ballajá, en San Juan de Puerto Rico. En su libro "Tótem y Tabú", Sigmund Freud nos describe a el tótem como un símbolo de la unidad de un clan o grupo, más allá de relaciones de consanguinidad, como si el mismo fuera un antepasado, un espíritu protector de la tribu. Dicho esto podríamos decir (parafraseando las palabras de Freud), que este monumento ha resultado ser un símbolo de cohesión y unidad nacional para las nuevas generaciones de puertorriqueños, símblolo que hoy resulta tan necesario frente a la trágica realidad de un país tan convulso y profundamente dividido como el nuestro.

Castillo San Felipe del Morro
El Castillo de San Felipe del Morro, también conocido simplemente como El Morro, es una ciudadela española construida entre el siglo XVI y el siglo XVIII en el extremo norte de San Juan, Puerto Rico. Por muchos años, vigiló la entrada a la bahía de San Juan y protegió la ciudad de ataques marítimos. El Morro es un término usado para referirse a una porción de tierra o peñasco que sirve para observar un lugar. Este castillo es parte del Sitio Histórico Nacional de San Juan y fue declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por las Naciones Unidas en 1983. Hoy en día, el Morro es una de las principales atracciones turísticas de Puerto Rico, con exhibiciones de artículos de la época de la Conquista usados por españoles, indígenas y africanos. Otras exposiciones muestran modelos de barcos, así como datos históricos de la época. Los turistas y visitantes disfrutan de volar chiringas (cometas) en los alrededores del castillo. Cerca de dos millones de visitantes exploran esta fortaleza cada año. -
Plaza del Quinto Centenario
Quincentennial Square is quite modern and was built in 1992 to commemorate the 500th anniversary of Columbus's discovery of the Americas. The centerpiece of the square is a 40-feet tall monument, known as El Totem, designed by Puerto Rican artist Jaime Suárez. El Totem is made of clay brought from all over the Americas to signify the origins of the people inhibiting the continent. Down the stairway from El Totem, at the lower end of the square, is a walk-in water fountain. The square offers an excellent view of the Old San Juan Cemetery where a great number of notable figures in Puerto Rican history have found their final resting place.

Porta Coeli ('Gateway to Heaven') Convent church, or El Convento de Santo Domingo de Porta Coeli in Spanish, is one of the oldest church structures in the western hemisphere, located in San Germán, Puerto Rico. In 1609, the Dominican Order built the Convento de Porta Coeli at the crest of a hill in what is now San Germán Historic District. During the 18th century the Convento was reconstructed and a church built next to it. The single nave church was constructed of rubble masonry with stucco surfaced walls and a wood truss roof.[3] In 1949 Ubaldino Ramírez de Arellano, Monseñor Mac Manus, Bishop of Ponce, Senator Santiago R. Palmer and others arranged for the church of Porta Coeli in San German to be sold to the Government of Puerto Rico for a dollar so that it would be responsible for its safekeeping and preservation.[4] After restoration by the Institute of Puerto Rican Culture, the church now houses the Museo de Arte Religioso. This is a museum of religious paintings and wooden carvings dating from the 18th and 19th centuries. The building was listed in 1976 on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places as "Convento de Porta Coeli". -
