Close up look at a fly...sorry if you don't like them but I had to post it! Enjoy!!! With its abundance of shops, historic places, museums, open air cafés, restaurants, gracious homes, tree-shaded plazas, and its old beauty and architectonical peculiarity, Old San Juan is a main spot for local and internal tourism. A free tourist trolley serves the city. Visiting the Puerto Rico flag mural located in San Jose Street its a must to do when you are vacationing in San Juan, PR! Make sure you wear comfortable shoes like sneakers because the sidewalks are very narrow and there are a lot of hills. Enjoy!!! Puerto Rico Flag MuralThe Columbus Quincentennial in 1992 sparked a major refurbishing of the colonial architecture of Puerto Rico. The island's architectural heritage is Spanish, of course, as seen in the narrow, winding cobblestone streets and the pastel-colored, tile-roofed buildings with ornate balconies and heavy wooden doors that open onto inner courtyards in the style of Andalusia in southern Spain. Current restoration and renewal projects focus on Old San Juan and the city of Ponce. It is estimated that there are at least 400 structures of historic value in Old San Juan, including some of the finest examples of Spanish colonial architecture in the New World. Enjoy!!! En Mi Viejo San JuanWhen looking for a subject to photograph you don't have to look really far---you just need to look! Don't wait for a time of year, wonder around your neighborhood, your backyard or your house and you will find it. Enjoy!!! Simplicity |
