Old Town: Many would think of this as a tourist trap....
  • Tip Rating:
  • Here is the Bazar Del Mundo. Many folks who hate shopping and soulvenirs would hate this place. Picture the husbands sitting on benches while they wait. I rather enjoyed the shops because they are unique to the area. Not entirely authentic with local crafts the way they used to be, but lots of good stuff can still be found here. It is certainly attracting plenty of people, which the Old Town district did not come close to years ago. There are places to eat and outdoor entertainment from time to time...lots of lush gardens everywhere...and I found it all around quite charming. Guess it depends on your point of view.

     Thanks for the tips! I'll be visiting here at the end of a Vegas/SoCal trip this November so will be sure to swing by again when I have more ideas in my head! Gillybob greetings

     Janet, you have an excellent page here. My favorite spot in San Diego is of course Balboa Park because of the greenery and of course those beautiful old trees!!
