Monumento de la Dama Desnuda, also known as 'The Naked Lady,' is a bronze sculpture by artist Rafael Zamarripa, unveiled in 2001 on Puerto Vallarta's Malecón. It depicts a woman reclining gracefully, her form catching the light as waves crash behind her. The statue has become a symbol of the city's artistic spirit and a favorite photo spot. Visitors often touch her foot for good luck, and the surrounding area buzzes with strolling couples, vendors, and musicians.
