San Juan National Historic Site
San Juan National Historic Site was built between the 16th and 19th centuries to protect the city and the Bay of San Juan. The ancient stone walls rise high above the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Tunnels and the staircases wind through the interior leading back to the time when the fort provided the keystone to protection of the of the Spanish Empire that spread across the Caribbean. It took a long time Spanish to build the castle fort and city walls that comprise the San Juan National Historic Site. The first tower as Castillo San Feiple de Morro and LA Fortaleza rose in 1539. As time flew El Morro grew to six levels.
