Tibes Indigenous Ceremonial Park

This place typically has a museum, a video showing, gift shop, and the ceremonial grounds. Since it suffered from Hurricane Maria, not all parts are fully operational. Currently you can walk in the museum and the grounds. But it is still a beautiful place to learn of our history, walk and meditate.

An amazing historic location. The staff is educated in all aspects Of the indigenous history. Our guide Luis Martinez is amazing!!! He was able to make the stones to tell a history. Amazing! Kudos to all of them.

Although they charged entre fee, there was really nothing to see but the museum, the bohios were gone

Free parking, good place to learn and see PR history and learn about the taínos.

This is a very special place. You can tell it was an extremely special to the Pre-Tíano culture! This is a well tended park and a wonderful side trip!

Great place with lots of historical artifacts from the indian culture

Tl;Dr - great place to visit, call ahead and make sure they have tours going the day you go.This was going to be a highlight of our tour of the island. We were so excited to see the history that this place holds. And we did see some history, the walk through gallery and the movie were really nice, the Spanish and English translations were amazing for myself and our 6 year old who speak and read only a little Spanish. When we asked about the days yours we were told they werent having one that day, sad but ok we can read placards on our own and get the idea of whats going on... We went out to the ceremonial grounds and there was some really cool plants with name cards a few large signs talking about ball fields, plazas and the village. But that was about it, all the history and it honestly felt like we were walking around a field with a bunch of rocks scattered about.I feel that without a tour guide or even a map with highlights to check out, a lot of history is missed out on.After leaving and reading Wikipedia apparently one of the ball fields had some petroglyph, honestly I walked every field looking for them while there and didnt see any. Again a guide/map would have been able to point this out...This may sound like a negative review, but it really was a good visit.

Fantastic opportunity to learn about the history of Puerto Rican culture and peoples. There are museum exhibits with explanations in English and Spanish about the various waves of immigrants dating back to 4500 years ago. The exhibits include drawings, photos, relics, tools, and artwork.The outdoor exhibits appear to have been destroyed by hurricane Maria; only one replica hut is currently standing. Informational plaques still stand.

I always wanted to know more about the Puerto Rican natives and their history, but they havent left many traces. Here you can find a small museum with some artefacts and an archaeological site with several rectangular areas from small to large surrounded by stones. The usage of these areas is unknown, but it is believed that they probably served for some kind of ball game. Some of them seem to have something like a sidewalk on one or more sides. The largest field does not have straight borders. For me it reminded me more of fields for different games or fighting arenas.If you visit the site pay attention to the trees with the fruits, because some very large iguanas might be sitting inside them right above your head.

Puertorrican native people historical site.

Great information on the indigenous people of the Caribbean. The oldest known indigenous people land in the area.

Im very interested in archaeology and find this place amazing. For people less interested, it might not be that great. The monumental architecture is not comparable to Mayan sites in Mexico or something, but still very cool to see.

A nice and peaceful place that reminds me of our ancestors.

Beautiful place, the museum and grounds were fascinating. It was really cool to see the nature too.

It used to be an awesome place. But sad to see how even this place is suffering the money issues. Buildings look terrible, need paint and definitely need to be clean, plus the bridge over the river looks like one out of a terror movie

Love it

Its a Perfect place to learn about the culture of the indians of our Puerto Rico. To learn more about our cultural music and all our history.

It was the most amazing place to learn of puerto rico coucher

Great place for cultural learning and experience of Tainos in Puerto Rico

Neat place, saw a couple of petroglyphs and learned some history. If youve got a couple of hours to spare in Ponce I definitely recommend it.

This is a interesting place with a great potential. Sad that the employees are maintaining the place. A lot of history!

Very interesting place to learn about the Indians who live in the island of Puerto Rico

Amazing. Eye opening experience

Nice place to get to know a little bit of the pre-colonial heritage. The place has changed as a result of Hurricane Maria, but you can still appreciate all od the fields and the small museum.

Ceremonial site and ball court accessible from the connected museum.

Nice. History is correct, tour guide was kind of confused, wasnt clear about the history of the place. The findings in the museum where very interesting, and it gave you an actual idea of how the Amerindians lived before the Spanish conquest. Overall, good place to remember or know the roots of our archipelago.

Was our first time visiting Tibes Ceremonial Park and we loved it. Very good experience, or your guide was very helpful. We have so much to learn of our roots.

Like the restvof the island, this place needs a bit of help. Great place overall

Great to see that thier history still lives. Ojala que mantenga el parque.

If you want to spend two hours to learn our ancient culture this is the place.

As most government run attractions in bankrupt Puerto Rico this place was not open during the posted hours. Dont waste your time until the government is replaced here.

Amazing archeological discovery but park could be so much more. Sad.

Great to see historic areas of the early Indians

A very moving site to check out the historicity of Tiano Tribe

Excellent place to learn about your roots...!
