Guarding History in Old San Juan


Perched along the edge of history, this photo captures one of the iconic garitas (sentry boxes) of Castillo San Felipe del Morro, overlooking the endless blue of the Atlantic Ocean. Built in the 16th century to defend San Juan from sea attacks, El Morro stands as a proud fortress of Puerto Rico’s resilience, colonial charm, and rich heritage.

With sun-drenched stone walls, crashing waves below, and warm Caribbean breezes, Old San Juan invites you to step into a living postcard—where the past and present meet in the most breathtaking way.
