San Lorenzo, Mountain municipality in eastern Puerto Rico
San Lorenzo extends across 53 square miles of mountainous terrain in the eastern central region, bordered by Patillas, Yabucoa, Gurabo, Caguas, and Las Piedras.
The settlement was established in 1811 by Valeriano Muñoz de Oneca under the name San Miguel de Hato Grande before receiving its current designation.
The municipality celebrates the Festival de Bordado y Tejido in September and the Festival de Chiringa in March, bringing together local artisans and performers.
The territory contains eleven administrative districts, including Cayaguás, Cerro Gordo, Espino, Florida, Hato, Jagual, and Pueblo, with a population of 37,693 residents.
Hacienda Muñoz maintains active coffee plantations where visitors learn about production processes while observing peacocks, chickens, and donkeys roaming the grounds.
