| You won't pay a duty on anything bought in
Puerto Rico, but the island is not a duty-free port, so the prices are not extraordinary.
Here are a few of the many stores worth visiting: Galeria Botello - Plaza Las Americas, 754-7430 - Latin American artist's gallery. Gillies & Woodward - 725-5280 - sells cigars which are made from the island's tobacco. Ole - Calle Fortaleza, 724-2445 - great place to find crafts like gourd masks and watercolors. Spicy Caribbee - Calle Cristo, 725-4690 - variety of Caribbean spices, Puerto Rican coffee and cookbooks of local cuisine. Butterfly People - Calle Fortaleza, 723-2432 - beautiful arrangements of preserved butterflies that range from $20 to several thousand dollars. Puerto Rican Arts & Crafts - Calle Fortaleza, 725-5596 - local crafts that feature authentic papier-mache carnival masks and sterling-silver jewelry that features ancient petroglyphs. |
