natural beauty, old colonial architecture, beautiful arts and crafts....what more can one ask for from a vacation spot.
San Juan is the oldest city on US territory. The city has a Spanish based culture mixed in with African traditions.

The cobbled streets of old San Juan, lined with brightly colored Spanish townhouses with wrought iron doors and windows; centuries-old forts with impressive architecture; spectacular
views of the ocean; lots of galleries with local modern art....all of these made my travel experience truly unique and memorable. I hope I can go back there someday.
Here are a few snapshots from my trip.
