Fuente Raíces is located at the end of "Paseo de la Princessa". The central figure is a goddess soaring into the sky, representing freedom. Surrounding elements include a horse emerging from the sea, symbolizing Puerto Rico as an island; two adults with a child, representing the Puerto Rican family; dolphins and a nymph, symbolizing hospitality; a jibaro and a black woman, representing African culture; and the central goddess, symbolizing freedom. The fountain is situated at the end of the Paseo de la Princesa, a scenic promenade in Old San Juan, offering picturesque views of San Juan Bay and the historic city walls. It is a popular spot for both locals and tourists, often serving as a backdrop for photographs and a gathering place for cultural events and...

Fuente de las Raíces La Fuente de las Raíces está situada al final del Paseo de la Princesa. De alguna manera, marca el inicio del Paseo del Morro. Desde una pequeña terraza que hay cerca, se puede ver la Bahía de San Juan. Rodean la fuente edificios de bella factura y una parte de la muralla de San Juan. Es un lugar popular para ver la puesta de sol sobre la bahía. También son frecuentes las actuaciones musicales en este punto de la ciudad.

Esta fuente se construyó para conmemorar el 500 aniversario del descubrimiento del Nuevo Mundo por parte de España. La fuente representa a dioses y diosas de bronce de ascendencia taína, europea y africana. Se quiere representar así las raíces raciales y étnicas del pueblo de Puerto Rico.

Cada parte de la fuente tiene un significado. El caballo, animal valiente y robusto, saliendo del mar, representa a Puerto Rico (isla rodeada por agua); los dos adultos con el niño representan a la familia puertorriqueña; los delfines y la ninfa representan la hospitalidad; el jíbaro y la mujer negra representan la cultura africana; y la diosa al centro, representa la libertad.

Visitar la Fuente de las Raíces La Fuente de las Raíces es una obra del artista español Luis Sanguino. Se inauguró el 30 de mayo de 1992 para alegría de los ciudadanos. Es un lugar popular para tomar fotografías y un punto de encuentro común en el Viejo San Juan. Los turistas disfrutan de la belleza escultural de la fuente y de la atmósfera encantadora de la plaza. A veces es el escenario de eventos culturales, ferias, conciertos y celebraciones, que atraen a residentes y visitantes por igual.

Se llega fácilmente a pie una vez recorrido todo el Paseo de la Princesa. También se puede llegar por el Paseo del Morro pero deshaciendo el camino. Es decir, empezando el Paseo desde el Castillo San...

There a lot to do and see in this area and this statue is one of them. This is a great example of (they don’t make them like they used to). Best time to visit is at sunset & night to see it light up. The surrounding view & atmosphere is amazing and romantic. There’s plenty of parking nearby and a nice optional pathway along the ocean to have a short walk to a pier and massive historic doorway.

Also visiting during Christmas is a great time of year as well as when they have small festivals or craft shows. If you want quiet, avoid these...
