The Caguana Indigenous Ceremonial Centre is the most important taíno archaeological site in all the Antilles Islands. This is an on-site archaeological museum, compiled of ten ceremonial courts where the Tainos played the famous ball game called Batey.
Museo El Cemi

In the Coabey Valley of Jayuya, we find one of the most impressive petroglyph mural, La Piedra Escrita. This huge white granite stone, located in the middle of the Saliente River, is carved with dozens of petroglyphs.
