Within a cobblestoned, seven square block, is the walled area of Old San Juan. The historic city, with its regal architecture and beautiful plaza, is found at the western tip of San Juan Island, with sea surrounding most of its edges. Within San Juan is the 16th century fortress of El Morro, a building which protected the area from the likes of pirates and the Dutch. Rising 150 feet above sea level, El Morro’s walls are 15 feet thick and contain a maze of tunnels, dungeons and fortifications. Today the building is a kite-flying enthusiast’s site!
