Aibonito, Puerto Rico’s Flower Capitol

This week my wife and I visited the town of Aibonito, flower capitol of Puerto Rico. We started at the beautiful San José Parish, that will be celebrating its 200th birthday in just a few weeks. Then we took a stroll around Segundo Ruiz Belvis Square and ended up at City Hall. From there we visited the Old Tobacco Factory, where we bought an avocado the size of a large grapefruit. Not one of those teeny weeny “avocados from Mexico” that you see in the States. This one was huge!!! After that we were off to the Casa Museo Federico Degetau, Puerto Rico’s first resident commissioner. To continue with the “museum vibe” we went to “Galería Vista Alegre”, a smaller museum that holds a beautiful painting collection donated by Dr. Jorge Luis Sanchez Colón. At that point we left the center of town and drove to the Aibonito countryside to see “el reloj de flores”, a monumental floral clock that’s all the rage on the Island. Finally we visited the San Cristóbal Canyon area and ended the program with the Aibonito Flower Festival (el festival de las flores de Aibonito). And just so you know, I’m well aware that the flower festival takes place in July. That’s why we visited then and saved the footage for now. ================ VIDEO CHAPTERS ================ 00:00 - Introduction 01:01 - Bumper 01:17 - About Aibonito 02:09 - San José Parish 04:01 - Segundo Ruiz Belvis Square 06:03 - City Hall 06:54 - Old Tobacco Factory 08:18 - Federico Degetau Museum 11:01 - Galería Vista Alegre 12:14 - El Jardín De Jeanny (Monumental Floral Clock) 15:32 - San Cristóbal Canyon 17:40 - Aibonito Flower Festival 19:04 - Old San Juan Walking Tour And of course, as in all our videos, every attraction includes the GPS coordinates for your convenience. ================================ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL HERE: ================================    / @puertoricobygps   ================= RELATED CONTENT ================= Why I Do What I Do? —    • Why I Do What I Do   La Vuelta Del Bobo”, A Traffic Jam That Puerto Ricans Actually Enjoy —    • This Would Seem Stupid Anywhere Else!!!   Does GPS Work In Puerto Rico?
