In Acapulco, we recommend
that you visit a unique and indestructible XVI century construction,
built to defend the port city against possible pirate attacks. Today
it is open to the public and is a treasure that you will truly
appreciate.
El Fuerte de San Diego – Located on Hornitas Street in the
Colonia Centro neighborhood, this is an old fort that has been
converted into the Acapulco History Museum. There, you can learn
about the fort’s history and visit different rooms entitled: The
Manila Galleon, Pirates in the Pacific and Trade from the Orient. A
spectacular light and sound show is offered, which narrates the
history of the port during colonial times.
