A tourist couple crossed the at one end of a pastoral, tree-lined street.

Dense foliage grew between the sidewalk and the street. A woman walking her dog was almost invisible behind dense leaves.

A small city plaza offered many places to sit and rest during the warm afternoon.

Families were out for a walk at the corner of J. Langarica and Peru streets.

A seafront plaza offered a view of the ocean.

Large art letters were lined up along one corner of the plaza and spelled, "Puerto Vallarta."

The plaza continued north and proved a popular place for tourists to walk under palm trees.

A statue of a happy miner was on display in a store that sold the gems mined in Puerto Vallarta.

Arches faced the sea. Those arches proved a popular place for tourists to pose for photographs.

Typical Mexican flags hung over the sidewalks. Each flag was cut to display a traditional scene.

Rows of potted plants softened the iron grill which protected the window behind.
