Paseo de la Princesa (Promenade of the Princess) is an outdoor promenade pathway along the southern tip of Old San Juan. At it's heart is the San Juan Tourism Company. Lots of local festivities and cultural events are held here, and displays are constantly changing (when we were here, they had incredible, poster-sized photos up of various world phenomenons. Very captivating).
A stroll through the promenade is a must - you'll find locals mingling with tourists, Piragua carts (snow cone), and fresh squeezed China juice (orange) - if you keep along the path, you'll hit the Old San Juan bay - further down you'll hit the famous Red Door - hundreds of years ago, when soldiers ported, they would rush to the Red Door to touch it and say a prayer of thanks that they survived. You can keep on your stroll or enter the Red Door, which will eventually take you up to the San Juan Church (where Jennifer Lopez got married). Pretty incredible.
