El Morro Castle, otherwise known as “Castillo del Morro”, is a great starting point once you arrive in Havana. It’s situated on top of a rocky promontory at the entrance of Havana’s bay—it can’t be missed! It’s a massive fort with an equally impressive history. The castle was built starting in 1590 to protect Havana against military attacks, and also served as a watch post to keep an eye out for enemies (like pirates!). It is composed of 3 bastions linked by curtain walls, casemented barracks and also houses cisterns, a chapel, officer’s quarters, a wine cellar, stables, and dungeons. Today, El Morro Castle is used as a museum and can be visited for a small fee. Its fantastic views make it a great first stop, a short taxi ride from the city center

It is a must for its history, for its magical views of the ocean and the city, and for the postcardlike pictures you can shoot from there

"El cañonazo de las 8", the cannon shot at 8pm is one of the best known traditions in Havana. It's nice to explore the fortress and presence the shot – and enjoy the best view over the shoreline of Havana. A must!
