Plaza de la Revolución

Plaza de la Revolución is a town park and monument site in Lares, on the ground tied to the 1868 uprising known as El Grito de Lares. A monument commemorating that revolt anchors the plaza, and visitors come to see it, photograph it, and walk the open grounds around it. Lares sits in Puerto Rico's central highlands, and the plaza stands at about 337 meters above sea level, which gives it a cooler, upland setting than the coast.
