Puerto Rico Ilustrado/El Mundo Building (Spanish: Edificio El Mundo/Puerto Rico Ilustrado) is a historic Art Deco high-rise building located in the Old San Juan historic district of the city of San Juan, Puerto Rico. The building was erected in 1923 to serve as the headquarters of the El Mundo newspaper and the Puerto Rico Ilustrado magazine. The architecture of the building blends numerous styles that represent the conjunction of various artistic movements and architectural schools of the late 19th century and the early 20th century. It is located in a high-rise block that faces the elevated La Palma Bastion portion of the city wall of San Juan which, when observed from beyond, makes the building look taller than it is in reality. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 for its architectural and historic importance.

Paseo de la Princesa (English: Promenade of the Princess or Princess Promenade), is a partially waterside 19th-century pedestrian promenade about .50 miles (0.80 km) in length located in the historic district of Old San Juan in Puerto Rico that is lined with Victorian lampposts and benches, large trees and gardens, and varying fountains and sculptures, and host to food and artisan street vendors, musical and theatrical street entertainers, and cultural restaurants and festivals.

The structure is also known as Palacio de Santa Catalina (Saint Catherine's Palace). It is the oldest executive mansion in continuous use in the New World. It was listed by UNESCO in 1983 as part of the World Heritage Site "La Fortaleza and San Juan National Historic Site". During the 1640 reconstruction, the chapel of Santa Catalina, which originally stood outside the walls, was integrated into the structure's walls, resulting in the alternate name Santa Catalina's Castle.

The Plaza de Armas of San Juan is one of the main squares in San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico. It is located on San José Street in Old San Juan, and was designed to serve as the original main square for the city. San Juan City Hall is located to the north of the square, while the Puerto Rico Department of State lies at the west. The square's main feature is a round fountain with four marble statues representing "The Four Seasons", originally placed in the four corners of the square, which had been commissioned in 1856 to the "motherland", to be placed in Paseo La Princesa esplanade in Old San Juan.

Plaza de la Catedral (Spanish for 'cathedral square'), also known as Plazuela de las Monjas ('little square of the nuns'), is a small public square located in front of the Cathedral of San Juan Bautista and next to the former Carmelite convent (now a Hotel El Convento) in the Old San Juan historic district of the city of San Juan, Puerto Rico. The small but historic square is possibly the oldest in the city, dating to the foundation of the cathedral in 1521, and is found at the end of a wide historical residential block bound by the alleyways (Spanish: caletas) of Las Monjas and San Juan to the north and south, respectively, and by Calle del Cristo ('del Cristo Street') to the east. Caleta de San Juan connects this square to the San Juan Gate (Puerta de San Juan), formerly known as the Water Gate (Puerta de Agua) as it was the main harbor entrance into the walled city. This block formerly contained the first Episcopal church in the city between 1909 and 1929 when it was moved to a bigger location in Santurce, and later housed the San Juan Children's Museum (Museo del Niño de San Juan), which closed in 2016.

The Catedral Basílica Metropolitana de San Juan Bautista, or in English, Metropolitan Cathedral Basilica of Saint John the Baptist, is the Roman Catholic cathedral of the Archdiocese of San Juan de Puerto Rico.

Even though the Cathedral of Santa María la Menor in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, is an older church building, the Cathedral of San Juan Bautista was the first cathedral church in the Americas as San Juan, then known as the city of Puerto Rico, was the first diocese of the New World with bishop Don Alonso Manso in 1511. The site is the location of the first church built in the New World.

The Patio Español building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.
