As promised in my previous post I am still in Cebu City.

The Philippines is a relatively new country. After being discovered by the Europeans a few hundred years ago it was under foreign rule for the most part. That means a lot of colonial influence. Fort San Pedro is a good example of this. If you are into history or military architecture then Fort San Pedro is a must-see.

Entrance to the fort

Remember Santo Niño? The image is present also here

View of the fort’s inner yard

And this is the fort’s wall

There is quite a lot of vegetation in the fort.

There is a park right next to the fort. And as a proper park it needs to have a monument or two.

In the next post we will visit the oldest house in the Philippines and view the cityscape from one giant temple.
