Welcome to The Puerto Rico Lens!
Whether you just love Puerto Rico or are interested in knowing more about it, you've come to the right place!
As stated by Wikipedia, Puerto Rico, officially the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Spanish: "Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico", IPA [estado lib%u027Ee asosjado de pwe%u027Eto riko]), is a self governing unincorporated territory of the United States with Commonwealth status[1] located in the northeastern Caribbean, east of the Dominican Republic and west of the Virgin Islands; approximately 2,000 km (1,280 miles) off the coast of Florida (the nearest of the mainland United States). The archipelago of Puerto Rico includes the main island of Puerto Rico, the smallest of the Greater Antilles, and a number of smaller islands and keys, the largest of which are Mona, Vieques, and Culebra. Puerto Ricans sometimes refer to their island as Borikén, or the Spanish variant Borinquen, a name for the island used by indigenous Taíno people. The current term boricua derives from the Taíno name for the island, and is commonly used to identify oneself as Puerto Rican.
