SAN JUAN
Called, “La Ciudad Amurallada”, San Juan was established in 1521. It has one of the biggest and best natural harbors in the Caribbean and is the second oldest city in the Americas. San Juan is a major port and tourist resort of the West Indies and is the oldest city under the U.S flag. The metropolitan area known as San Juan has several distinct areas: Old San Juan, the beach resorts and other important outlying communities: Río Piedras, Hato Rey, Puerta de Tierra, and Santurce. Old San Juan where Instituto Internacional is located is part of a 465-year-old neighborhood originally used as a military stronghold. Today Old San Juan is a charming residential and commercial district. The streets here are paved with cobbles of blue stone brought over on Spanish ships. With more than 400 carefully restored 16th- and 17th-century Spanish colonial buildings, Old San Juan attracts many tourists. While visiting many enjoy the casinos, fine beaches, and tropical climate. More tourists visit San Juan each year than any other spot in the Caribbean. A leisurely tour via foot is advisable for those who really want to experience this wonderful bit of the Old World.
