This is a colonial fortress which is is perfect condition and from there you can see all the bay and port of Montevideo and understand its importance. There is also a lighthouse. One of the typical sights of Montevideo.

Interesting to see all the old canons and guns and get some perspective of the history surrounding this city. Probably also worth a visit to take in the views as it is located on a hill. We were warned that there are slums nearby and petty theft is a problem there.
