This is just a really fascinating castle to explore - lovely and interesting building well preserved. Sadly most of the info is in Spanish without any translations, but then I really shouldn't expect everyone else to speak English so fair enough. Well worth a visit and lovely views.

Stunning view of the Caribbean from the battlements and striking angles and curves for the photographer. This was the first place we stopped at when the bus tour took us from the resort in Holguin...
