As you would expect, this deep into the Cordillera Central, you will find a number of natural attractions and sights. To start with, the Río La Plata (the longest river in Puerto Rico) runs right through town. It is just a short walk from the plaza.

From the plaza walk around and behind the church and around the block. Here you will find a newly refurbished area and the firehouse with a beautifully maintained, classic fire truck. As you check the directory, you will see caves to visit (by appointment only), a recreation area and a panoramic overlook.
