United States

Phone 1: 787-729-6777

Fuerte San Felipe Del Morro, commonly known as "El Morro", is a widely known landmark of Puerto Rico and its picture is often used in travel advertisements. El Morro owes its history and architecture to the Spaniards who began building it in 1539. It suffered attacks from Sir Francis Drake in the 1500's and the Dutch fleet in 1625. El Morro also came into play in 1898 during the Spanish - American War. The fort was in use as lately as World War II when the U.S. added an annex to the fort for military purposes. Today its historical significance has been sealed by its designation as a World Heritage Site and is also a U.S. National Park Site coming under the U.S. National Park Service. The fort is open 9:00am to 5:00pm from June to November and 9:00am to 6:00pm from December through May. Admissison is around $2.00. Directions: From Luis Munoz Marin Airport, take Rd. 26 to Rd. 25 through Old San Juan. Then right onto Nozagaray Street which leads directly to El Morro

Old San Juan

Old San Juan is the second oldest city in the Americas. Its small alley-ways are home to neat little shops and restaurants.

The hanging balconies and architecture remind me of Cuba, even though I have never visited Cub
