I am from la Perla it’s not dangerous

I was there a few weeks ago stop at a bar in had a drank everyone was cool no one tripped

I don’t understand how if you can record this man is recording like is ok

Everyone wearing masks outside shows how brutally brainwashed, oppressed, and easily controlled the Puerto Rican people are It’s already been proven they do nothing outside years ago

South side Pulga more fun and only $2 lol

They probably now know they stand to make a lot money off the tourists that are looking to get high and buy illegal services so they probably toned it down some so they dont completely scare of potential customers. So good business decision by the drug lord's in power in la Perla 😂. Thank you great video. You have a joyful, good and respectful spirit.This is probably why you made thru okay.😊 P.S. I rather deal with chickens then rats in the streets 😂

I go to La Perla every time I port in San Juan because I like to go down by the water and have a Heineken. Keep your phone in your pocket and stick to main path. It’s a unique place.

You still scared

My first into the grocery side of things. :) Wait... still wearing a mask in 2023.? Was it required.?

Take em with me 😂

That was beautiful. Thank so much. I have always wanted to go to La Perla. I am a rapid traveler. I love water and beach Gulf of Mexico. Locals are nice to talk to and friendly natives are nice in that area. Latin American culture and food must be Bueno.

Tenemos productos nacionales para exportación!!

Runnings no joke n

It’s the United States not another country

La parla. Is a quaint little neighborhood next to the Fort .there's been a lot of damage from hurricanes . but this place is not dangerous. I'm a 65 year old white male and It's got an old world Caribbean vibe, right On the beach ..the people are super friendly . Great place to grab lunch or a brew and hang out. You'll meet some interesting people. And always friendly. enjoy la parla.. Tell them mister Danny sent you...

La perla was worse way back then , you couldn’t even go near it without people kicking you out if you weren’t from there , most hoods in pr are still like that but la perla has toned it down because of the tourism

All these places we have to show respect but they come here and crap all over us

Ecin era stroser eht ylnwo

Ytrid skool ecalp siht

You found Walmart big supermarkets stores in Puerto Rico (Borikén) too 🇵🇷

I cant believe you walked right past el bowl

It’s simple people! Imma put it like this… lets say you live in a gated community, beautiful golf course behind your house, great neighbors for the most part and you decide come out to your pool. Imagine as soon as you step out to your patio… u see a golfer peeing on one of your palm trees or beside your house. How would u react? It’s all about common sense. Right now, in this present time… 2023, La Perla has evolved into a tourist destination. A beautiful place full of good vibes, good music and bars. I big reason for la Perla’s huge popularity is… it’s Notorious and Infamous history. Back in the 90s and in the 80s la perla was a place where not even local Puerto Ricans would go, let alone tourists. It was a very very very dangerous place, overtime Puerto Rico and the government has managed to fix it up and promote it to the world. Now al thought it’s for the most part safe, We can’t forget the roots of the neighborhood… it’s a ghetto, it was a slum and YES it is a place where u can find some party goodies. But one thing guaranteed if you go in there looking for a good time, not disrespecting the locals and politely asking if it’s ok to take a pic… you’ll be fine!

“Do not record in this area” followed up by a KZbin video recording the area. Brave dude.

Wow that's where I played ball si much at before Carmelo Anthony fixed it up. Good games there. 🇵🇷👍🏾

I lived in that area about 10 mins away. Back in my days when I lived over there. It was more about the danger of going in. Now they've beautified it. And are inviting people in to observe loll and enjoy Everything that's been mentioned in the internet about people getting attacked is because they were disrespectful out of towners coming to Puerto Rico thinking like they could do what they want. They cause havoc in other place like in Carolina, San Juan and around my country. You respect and we will respect you. Fuck up and you'll get fucked!! 🤷🏾‍♂️ Thank you for showing the world that it's not as bad. 👍🏾🇵🇷

I was at that store!

Me encanta la Perla SIEMPRE que voy a PUERTO RICO de VISITA bajo a ver my old friend...

I’m Puerto Rican living in PA. I went to travel to PR & I needed weed. So ofc I had my shirt off riding a moped around the island that entire day, so I stopped by la perla. The moment I crossed that line, one of the OGs in the hood asked why I don’t have a shirt on? I said cuz it’s hot and I don’t want my shirt drenched in sweat. He said “turn around and go put a shirt on” as there was 5 other dudes surrounded behind him making sure I ain’t pulling out my camera or tryna start problems. I asked him I was there just for weed and he gave me a whole 8th so I gave him $50 with a $10 extra tip since it was $40. Cool dude, just gotta respect the areas. Not even the cops go to that area. Don’t make my mistake lol wear a shirt, act accordingly and friendly & NEVER record anything! They will kill you, no hesitation

How is that church? I going this summer and I want a Christian church for that Sunday, not Catholic

Looks more like a flea market 😊

Went down there to by drugs and it was amazing experience 10/10 jus don’t pull out camera

Is this worth attending?

Thanks for putting it in English my Spanish is not so good thanks for sharing

Please do not record when you are in La Perla. the residents do NOT like when you have your phone out!!!

I've been there a few times with NO issues. We took videos and pictures, stopped at one of the bars and had a drink.

I just want to go to the basketball court to take some pics in and out 😁

I can't believe there's a sign going in saying something like "Shanty Town" or something. It's like a tourist attraction, yet you really do get offered drugs when you go inside. I followed the rules about not taking out my phone and I was safe. I saw a woman who forgot and took out her phone and she was safe too.

I'm here to get more of an idea of La Perla because I just saw a bunch of different news reports on my Facebook newsfeed about three tourists who got stabbed for filming in taking pictures.

PR is actually very Americanized. A lot of ppl speak English there now. Especially the younger generation

I gave pics on his court

It call the code

This guy has no idea what he’s talking about lmao. Acting like a tourist.

Great content man!

El primer súper mercado al que llegue en la isla

🍻🇵🇷🌏🌍🌎🤜🏾🤛🏻

It all depends in your attitude. If you're friendly they'll be friendly. If you're a pain in the ass they'll deal with you accordingly. In other words, they'll pay you with the same coin. No hipocricy like in the mainland.

AUN ES EL LUGAR MAS PELIGROSO Y LOS LUGARES PUBLICO DE VIVIENDAS...UNA GRAN PENA

Hey, this don't look like the slum to me Looks amazing to me
