Also known as Castillo San Felipe del Morro, the El Morro Fort is a spectacular citadel set on a promontory overlooking the San Juan Bay. It's a six-level marvel of engineering that was built by the Spanish between the 16th and 18th centuries, and it's one of the country's most recognizable icons. Guided tours are available in both English and Spanish, but visitors are also welcome to explore the fort on their own. A small admission fee is charged to enter to fort itself, but if there's no charge if you simply want to come relax on the lawn and watch locals flying their kites.
