Map of Old San Juan as part of San Juan National Historic Site in Puerto Rico, an off-white chevron-shaped island with one end pointing northwest and other end pointing due east, The Atlantic Ocean and San Juan Bay are light blue.

Extended Description

An oblong grid of gray streets takes up the middle of the island. Nine red, numbered circles mark points of interest, others are noted in pale green.

A thick, irregular black line runs along the west coast of the island, representing the city wall. A quarter of the northwest side of the island is shaded green, a gray dashed line stretched across it, running from the town to a black triangle sitting snugly in the northwest point of the island, labeled “El Morro.” The city wall continues along the north side of the island, separating the town from the beach. A cluster of irregular black shapes on the east side of town near where the city wall ends, labeled “San Cristóbal.”

Plaza Colón is noted at the east side of town, between San Francisco and Ponce de León Streets, both of which run east-west. Plaza de Armas is half of a block near the center of town, between San José and Cruz Streets, both of which run north south. Parque de las Palomas is noted on the south side of town against the city wall, near the intersection of Cristo Street, which runs north-south, and Tetuán Street, which runs east-west. Paseo de la Princesa is a long strip of green on the south side of the island, outside of the city wall, just north of the parking lot. A small parking lot is noted near the intersection of Recinto Sur Street, which runs east-west, and Tanca Street, which runs north-south, north of the cruise ship docks.

Circle 1 sits between San José Street and Cruz Street, just north of Plaza de Armas, which is noted in green. Circle 6 sits between Cristo Street and San José Street, near circle 1.

Circle 2 sits on the far west side of town. Circle 3 is just south of number 2, and circle 8 sits just north of circle 2, on the southside of Norzagaray Street.

Circle 4 sits near the southern point of the island along the city wall, on the southern end of Recinto Oeste Street, near Paseo de la Princesa. Circle 5 sits beside an unlabeled green square, between Norzagaray Street and San Sebastián Street. Circle 7 sits on the city wall along San Juan Bay, just west of Recinto Oeste Street. Circle 9 is on the south side of the island between Cristo Street and San José Street, near Parque de las Palomas, just north of the parking lot.
