Guam

U.S. forces during the liberation of Guam in World War II.

The Territory of Guam is home to War in the Pacific National Historical Park. At War in the Pacific National Historical Park the former battlefields, gun emplacements, trenches, and historic structures all serve as silent reminders of the bloody World War II battles that ensued on Guam. While the park is known for its historical resources, the warm climate, sandy beaches, and turquoise waters beckon visitors and residents to enjoy the island’s natural resources.

Visit: War in the Pacific National Historical Park

Be sure to also check out the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument, managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

    I had a wonderful experience at the Visitor Center especially with Johnathan who greeted me well at the door and all the workers there whose names have escaped me! But I can say that Guam NPS is a must see for anyone in the area! Thank you!

    Es sorprendente ver como aun hoy en Guam es oficial un idioma mixto español-austronesio, la religión católica es mayoritaria, predominan los nombres y apellidos castellanos y se conservan canciones tradicionales en español y danzas folclóricas hispanas.

    En algunas islas micronesias, principalmente en Guam, Saipán y Ponapé, hay habitantes nativos que hablan español por motivos religiosos.

    Es muy bonito viajar a Guam en Navidad. En la fiesta de la Epifanía (Reyes Magos) en la parroquia de “Nuestra Señora de la Paz y Buen Viaje” de Chalan Pago, se celebra la misa en español, al final con comida y canciones tradicionales. Se acercan a esa parroquia hispanohablantes de toda la isla.
