Puerto Vallarta Mayor Arturo Dávalos Peña, along with municipal authorities, inaugurated a new city landmark during the World Tourism Day celebrations: a colorful installation with the letters that spell “Puerto Vallarta.” The installation is currently located at the city’s Malecon, and will be in constant exhibition at different locations throughout the city.

The new attraction was created by Mexican sculptor Carlos Terrés, who was also responsible for the current crown on top of the city’s Guadalupe Church. Each letter is decorated with artistic elements and details present on the works by legendary local artist Manuel Lepe, whose naïve style has represented Puerto Vallarta throughout the world. The project took two months to complete.

Los Arcos Amphitheater and Marina Vallarta are among the next locations for this sign that is quickly becoming a popular spot for tourists and locals looking to photograph themselves and their loved ones as a souvenir.

According to Dávalos Peña, this sign does not compete with the welcome letters developed by local artist Natasha Moraga at the northern entrance to the city, as both projects help promote Puerto Vallarta and provide visitors with a memorable vacation experience.

“In a meeting that we had with the magazine’s founder, he told us about his dream of making a quality and luxury publication because he was convinced that Puerto Vallarta needed that. For that reason, we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles since its beginnings. These days, our brand is very well positioned thanks to the strategic distribution of the magazine, as it helps us reach more potential customers which is a great benefit for us.”

The Agency Punta de Mita

"Vallarta Lifestyles is very similar to The Agency, we have a similar client base, [residents and tourists] who seek for information about the topics that are featured in each issue; lifestyle, restaurants, and architecture, among others. And, because the way your magazines are located, we can really capture the clients we want."

“When I first opened my gallery in 1986, my relationship with Vallarta Lifestyles started for the need of people to know me and, because it is one of the very few quality publications in the destination, I decided to advertise in it. There are clients that still remember me for the magazine, with whom I have had several years of relationship.”
