Old Town
“Settled” by Spanish padres in 1769, Old Town is considered the historic
seat of San Diego. For a glimpse of days gone by and great Mexican food,
visit Plaza del Pasado, where painstaking care has been taken to restore
authentic details of the past. From “period” murals to furnishings reflecting
the area’s rich history, the Plaza offers a good time and a truly educational
look at San Diego’s rich Mexican-American heritage. For colorful artisan
shopping, visit Bazaar del Mundo (off Taylor Street, just east of Juan) or
drop by the Old Town Market. www.oldtownsandiego.org
