Castillo San Felipe de Barajas

Well, the holidays passed, a walk under a blazing sun to remove and a little story (oh really summed) to neurons! San Felipe de Barajas is the largest fortress built by the Spaniards during the colonial period, a fort was built in 1536 and rebuilt in 1657 and strengthened in the middle of the eighteenth century. It is located at the top of the hill San Lazaro, strategic location, because it shows all roads can lead to an invasion of the city by land or by the bay. She served primarily to guard Many of the pirates who besieged the city 5 times, and was designed so that even if some fell into the hands of the invaders, the defenders could shoot another party, but that did not happen, because this fortress has never been conquered!
