I dare you to go into Old San Juan, for five minutes, and not see at least four cameras. Go on, I double dare you. Done? You owe me a beer.

Many artists from all over the Island come to Old San Juan to capture the scenery for their personal collections, looking to demonstrate a new angle on famous structures and to find overlooked spots to shine some artistic light in. When you combine this with the huge number of tourists that visit the city every day you get the reason why OSJ’s vistas are famous around the world.

Here are some artistic expressions from Old San Juan.
