Tucson’s historic El Presidio neighborhood is a photographer’s dream (at least this photographer). There is something worth exploring with your camera around every corner. Make sure you allow yourself plenty of time to explore the neighborhood and get out of the car. Walking is key to discovering everything El Presidio has to offer.
The neighborhood is bounded on the north by 6th St., on the east by Church Ave., on the south by Alameda St., and on the west by I-10.  The map below highlights just a few of the many great photo opportunities in the El Presidio neighborhood as well as the locations of my photographs included in this post.
