Located on the western edge of downtown Tucson directly south of the Tucson Convention Center, Barrio Viejo has historic ambiance as one of the oldest neighborhoods of the city. Its traditional adobe apartments and houses for rent have brightly-colored exteriors and modern interiors.
For a panoramic view of Tucson and its environs, take the easy hike to the top of A Mountain peak in nearby Sentinel Peak Park. Closer at hand, enjoy a contemplative stroll to the famous landmark El Tiradito, or head to the Wishing Shrine.
Check out the elaborate brunch menu and ample portions at 5 Points Market and Restaurant. Later in the day, enjoy drinks and dinner while listening to soothing jazz at Cushing Street Bar and Restaurant.
