TOURIST ATTRACTIONS & SIGHTSEEING, PRACTICAL INFORMATION
San Juan, also known as 'The Walled City' for its gently crumbling ramparts that tell the story of its Spanish foundations, is a well-preserved colonial town and the vibrant capital of Puerto Rico. Decidedly progressive in mindset, yet maintaining a beguiling old world charm, San Juan is America's second-oldest European-established capital. It was founded in 1521 by Spanish colonists, a historic milestone that permeates through various tenets of San Juan's colonial personality. Old San Juan, the city's colonial heart is marked with numerous architectural vestiges, from the sprawling Plaza de Armas and the Cathedral of San Juan, to less important yet equally striking pastel colored houses and winding callejóns or alleyways. Tourism typically thrives in the oceanfront suburb of Condado, while Miramar is dotted with elegant Spanish-style residences. With a vibrant nightlife rife with local bars and clubs, this city encompasses a wildly captivating Caribbean spirit.
