Let's explore what's inside the Fort San Pedro


A contemporary tune played by a talented blind musician welcomed us as we stepped into the grounds of Fort San Pedro in Cebu City. The music was rather merry that my cheery friends could not help but dance to the tune. There we were by the entrance to a truly historic site, dancing and sharing a laugh on a bright afternoon.

Fort San Pedro was not a popular tourist spot but a functional military defense structure. Lying in Plaza Independencia in Cebu City, Fort San Pedro was constructed by Spanish and Cebuano laborers. Miguel Lopez de Legazpi, a Spanish conquistador who founded the earliest Spanish settlement in Cebu, initiated the construction of the fortress.

Fort San Pedro is said to be the oldest and the smallest fort in the Philippines but if you will visit here, you will be interested about it because of its historical nature. Me and my friends are amazed when we knew about the Fort San Pedro.
