About
During the seventeenth century, around the port city of Campeche, powerful fortress and a long wall were built to repel the constant English, French, and Dutch Pirate attacks. Nowadays, this city is an outstanding example of military architecture from the Spanish Colonial era, and Campeche’s Old Quarter is one of the most harmonious and well-preserved Baroque Architectural complexes in Mexico. It is also considered one of the most beautiful and pleasant places in the country.
