Puerto Vallarta was a thriving Mexican village because of it's proximity to the Bay of Banderas, the agricultural valley of the Ameca River, and the mining centers in the Sierras long before it became an international tourist destination. Tourism has become a major economic activity because of the climate, scenery, tropical beaches, and rich cultural history. Enjoy this painting and all of the activities you would expect from a Mexican tourist destination, including beach activities, a Mariachi band, Papantla Flyers and plenty of shopping and great food.
