a lot of stairs, rooms and tunnels to see.
if you plan on visiting both, pay for the ticket together at the first location to save $1

If you want the best views in San Juan and probably one of the best in Puerto Rico take a walk to the top of the old fort at San Cristobal. It is immaculately kept and preserved and the staff were very helpful. You can see miles and miles of the beautiful beaches and water crashing on the rocks. Also...
