Barrio Viejo is a neighborhood that is located in the downtown section of Tucson, Arizona.
The name translates to English as "Old Neighborhood". The neighborhood was a cultural
center of Tucson as it was the home to many immigrants, including Mexican, Chinese,
African and other European countries as well. Many parts of the Barrio were destroyed
in the mid to late 1900’s, but some has survived and makes up the neighborhood as it
stands now. Today, Barrio Viejo has one of the largest collection of 19th century adobe
buildings in the USA.
