Downtown Puerto Vallarta Cuale River Island, Hanging Bridges & Romantic Zone
Guided walking tour along Encino Street, past the Roma Cafe up until the Mercado Municipal Río Cuale (Cuale River Municipal Market) in downtown Puerto Vallarta Jalisco Mexico - here we turn right and over one of the three hanging bridges that connect the downtown area with Old Vallarta or the now called, Romantic Zone.
You can find all kinds of souvenirs in the Isla Cuale Flea Market, leather items, silver jewelry, t-shirts, traditional handicrafts, talavera ceramic, tequila, sombreros, hats, sunglasses and more.
In the past the area south of the Cuale River was used as farm land and for fruit trees, the first hanging bridge was inaugurated April 5th 1932 and they became part of the towns environment. There were special vehicles that took people over the river or you'd take a horse. October 3rd 1959 the first solid concrete bridge was opened after it was built in 100 days under the direction of Engineer Marcial Reséndiz Galván.
There's another hanging bridge connecting the island to the romantic zone by the Cuale Cultural center, where you'll also find a nice bridge (Iguana Bridge) connecting to the Gringo Gulch area of downtown PV.
I cross the bridge and show you a short panoramic view of some of the stands on the Cuale Island part of the bigger Cuale River Flea Market. The Cuale River Island is a relatively new geographic section of town that formed during strong rains in the 1970s. It was used as a playground into the 80s, hence the name Children's Island and then into the market and park that it is today.
We then cross over another hanging bridge over to the Romantic Zone, arriving at the corner of 5 de Febrero and Constitución Streets. We walk along Constitución past the, no closed, Gutierrez Rizo Supermarket and turn right on Aquiles Serdán Street.

Where is Las Animas Beach in Puerto Vallarta? Tips for your day trip?
Las Animas de Quimixto, which is more commonly known as just Las Animas, is a beautiful beach, in the south zone of Puerto Vallarta, officially located in Cabo Corrientes, Jalisco, Mexico, an area that begins south of Boca de Tomatlan.
To get there from Puerto Vallarta, we recommend traveling by land (10 miles from the main square of the city, or about 20 minutes) to Boca de Tomatlan, the last coastal village on the road South that takes you to Barra de Navidad. From there take the water taxis (pangas) that shuttle passengers to the beaches of the southern area of Banderas Bay.
It is the first stop water taxis make (locally called pangas) when they go to south in the Bay of Banderas. This section includes beaches and towns like: Quimixto, Majahuitas, Yelapa and some even further south, like Pizota, El Chimo and Cabo Corrientes.
Las Animas Beach is a very popular day trip, there are many tours and cruises that take you there from Puerto Vallarta and stay a good part of the day. It is the first beach, about 2 miles from Boca, (about 5-10 minutes), just after passing Caballo Beach.
It has a pier that helps a lot when disembarking passengers, the beach is a favorite of the sun and tanning fans. The sand is fine and clear, the waters are clean, the waves are usually very soft and the thick jungle serves as a backdrop.
What can be done in Las Animas Jalisco?
There is a good repertoire of small restaurants and vendors that offer fresh sea food and drinks that can be natural or alcoholic. We recommended you try the local fresh oysters and almost any fish dish, the zarandeado being the most popular. There are various activities on site, diving or snorkeling, walking along the beach and many enjoy parasailing.
There is nowhere to stay in Las Animas, but it is possible to find a beach place just up the beach in Casas Maraika and maybe stay at Majahuitas Resort and take a water taxi to get around.

Mexico City Is My #1 Mexican Travel Destination
A quick, 3 day, trip to Mexico City to drink specialty coffee, try as much new food as possible and see a few more Diego Rivera murals.
I will never finish exploring the Mexico City food scene. From street-side puestos to the hot new restaurants to the neighborhood favorites that have been there for 50 years, I want to see them all.

What to do in Bucerias, Beach & Market, Riviera Nayarit, Mexico
The town of Bucerías is located in the northern part of the Bay of Banderas in Riviera Nayarit a charming beach town, with attractive hotels, good dining options and many things you can do in your visit to Bucerias. Here are some of the best things to enjoy:
Bucerias is an excellent place to stay to enjoy the town and the nearby places in the bay, to the north and south.
Church of Our Lady of Peace of Bucerías
A few steps from the town square, you will find the Church of Our Lady of Peace in Bucerías. It has a wide central access and two lateral ones, a tower with three bodies where the bells mark the passing of time in this town.
People who feel nostalgic for the Puerto Vallarta of the last century are going to walk to Bucerias to remember it. Walk through the cobbled streets, greet local citizens who chat with their neighbors at the doors of the many picturesque houses.
Like Puerto Vallarta, before becoming a tourist attraction, Bucerías subsisted on the abundant fruits of the Pacific Ocean and agricultural crops, including corn, peanuts and fruits. In the market these and other products of the field are obtained, in addition fresh oysters and local crafts and of huicholes.
The gastronomy of Nayarit is very varied and tasty, especially the one that is related to the sea. Pesado zarandeado is a delight where a large fish, such as red snapper or snapper, opens up in a butterfly and is roasted on the coals, an already recognized dish of Mexican gastronomy.
You can also recommend the ceviches that are made with white meats of ocean fish, they are undoubtedly a delight that will be offered in the many restaurants of Bucerias.
In Bucerías you can enjoy walks by the sea, it is a pleasure to walk on the soft sands and especially early in the morning, when the sun rises, the beach is wide, long and offers good space and a spectacular view.
Among the sports that are offered in Bucerías is surfing, wakeboarding, boogieboarding and if you look at the strong and constant wind of the place you will easily realize that it is perfect for windsurfing and the most recent development of sailing sports, kite surfing
On Thursday afternoons in Lázaro Cárdenas street, the traditional Art Walk of the place begins, lasting until late at night. You walk down the street entering the art galleries and craft shops of the place. There are also small commercial hooks that are offered in the place, a little drink, a shot of tequila or mezcal, all to encourage them to enjoy and buy something of what is offered,
There are some important dates in the area and specifically in Bucerias where there are parties or celebrations that show the best and the most animated of the town, on January 24 is celebrated the day of the Virgin of La Paz, date on which is taken to the sea in a procession, there await a multitude of boats decorated beautifully, with music and fireworks to complete the experience. October 14 is the anniversary of the town, where it is celebrated to give everything, as is the custom in Mexico and on November 22, the day of Santa Cecilia, patron saint of the musicians, date in which the town receives musicians and bands from the surrounding area that come to compete with the best music that they offer to their patron protector.
