Amazing pictures of one of the biggest attractions of caribbean Guatemala, The Castillo de San Felipe de Lara located in Izabal.
One of the biggest tourist attractions in Guatemala is the Castillo de San Felipe (St. Philip's Castle), located in the department of Izabal.
Was a Spanish colonial fort strategically situated at the narrowest point to repel pirates.
The fort consists of a semicircular bastion enclosed behind two converging outer walls, each terminating in a roughly square tower. The fort has three storeys.
There are a lot of cannon's in the fort but only one is still preserved in bronze dated from 1796.
I was caught in this shot without a notice. Well, at least my back.
