Welcome
to Puerto
Vallarta
Puerto
Vallarta or PVR as it is known by the many who return
here every year is rimmed by dreamy mountains and set
on the shores of the largest bay in Mexico. Its natural
beauty is the setting for world-class resorts on fine
Pacific beaches bathed in tropical sunshine.
Here, almost thirty years ago, the passion of Elizabeth
Taylor and Richard Burton fueled the legend of romantic
Puerto Vallarta during the filming of "Night of
the Iguana". Since then, its fame has spread around
the world – yet its colourful character has remained.
The streets of the town are still paved with cobblestones.
Open-air markets are filled with handicrafts, and quaint
white-washed homes with red tiled roofs and iron balconies
still tumble down the steep, palm-covered hills as they
have for decades.
