Parque del Tricentenario, Municipal park in Ponce, Puerto Rico.

The park consists of three distinct plazas with gardens, marble benches, and the Bridge of Lions spanning over Rio Portugues river.

Constructed in 1992 under mayor Rafael Cordero Santiago, the park commemorates the 300th anniversary of Ponce's establishment as a city.

The Illustrious Ponce Citizens Plaza displays 24 kiosks with fountains honoring local figures in medicine, sports, arts, politics, and other fields.

Located at the southern end of PR-1 in Barrio Tercero, the park provides free access to visitors from sunrise to sunset every day.

Two massive lion sculptures guard the entrance bridge, with one representing hope and rebirth, while the other symbolizes wisdom and redemption.
