Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory in the Caribbean, is known for its salsa music, historic San Juan, and vibrant street festivals. Puerto Ricans are proud of their Spanish heritage, family ties, and a tradition of storytelling. Roman Catholicism is the predominant faith, but Protestant churches, especially Pentecostal and Baptist, are also widespread. Spiritual life is visible in church processions, lively worship, and the blending of faith with music and colorful fiestas.
