Old San Juan is one of the most visited places with historical value in Puerto Rico, both by its local community and by tourists who come to visit the archipelago. Located on the Isleta de San Juan, it is characterized by the preservation of buildings such as the Morro and the Chapel of Christ; also for its squares, museums, alleys and cobbled streets.
