Perched majestically above Havana's harbor, this massive 18th-century fortress offers panoramic views of the city and surrounding coastline that stretch for miles. The complex houses a museum, dungeon, and firing range where visitors can witness the dramatic nightly Cañonazo ceremony, a tradition dating back centuries. Walking its ramparts and exploring the underground passages transports you through layers of Caribbean colonial history.
