Beautiful Sunday – Visiting the Fortin de La Galera (Margarita Island)

in #beautifulsunday6 years ago (edited)

Hello friends, today I am going to share with you a visit to a magical place on the island of Margarita:

The Fortin de La Galera.

The Fort of the Galera is located in the city of Juangriego on the island of Margarita. The fort was built for the purpose of protecting the port of Juangriego in 1810 and was rebuilt in 1954. It is located in the two bays of Juangriego and La Galera. To access the fort you must climb a stone staircase, at the top four cannons are observed. In the lower part is the monument.

The view from the fort is really beautiful at all times, Juangriego is famous for its sunsets. My prince was very happy in one of the cannons.

In this shot you can see the town and the small boats.

The monument is the white that is seen at the end of the photo.

There are also living statues in the place; this makes it very fun (My son told me "you're the only one who smiles when they're going to kill you" hahahaha)

Beautiful Sunday with my prince

Super shot of your boy on the Cannon - looks like he is ready to take off. This is an impressive Fort, and it looks like you all had a great time visiting it. Good job @reverendrum in the last photo took pity on you - I hear he is keen on proving his Pirate credentials Arrr.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful day out for your #SublimeSunday, I throughly enjoyed this amazing journey.

I believe it hahahaha. Thanks for your support

Arrr, raiding woman and children is not the modus operandi of Reverend Rum, matey!

haha the kid wants to fire the cannon!

haha that's right, he was happy in the cannon

These historic place build to place the canons always seem to have a good view of the beach. You little man is a fan of Barcelona huh.

Almost all the castles are facing the sea, except one that is in the capital called Santa Rosa but still has a beautiful view, later I will show a walk through that area. My son is a fan of Madrid 😜. Regards..!

haha.... I thought the T-shirt is Barcelona.

Looks like a fun way to spend a Sunday....except maybe not the getting killed by a pirate part! Tip!
