Fort San Pedro in Cebu City Part 1

Fuerza de San Pedro is a military defence structure, built by Spanish and indigenous Cebuano labourers under the command of Spanish conquistador, Miguel López de Legazpi and the Spanish Government in Cebu. It is located in the area now called Plaza Indepedencia, in the Pier Area of Cebu City, Philippines.

The smallest, oldest triangular bastion fort in the country was built in 1738 to repel Muslim raiders. In turn, it served as a stronghold for Filipino revolutionaries near the end of the 19'th Century. This served as the nucleus of the first Spanish settlement in the Philippines.

The fort is triangular in shape, with two sides facing the sea and the third side fronting the land. The two sides facing the sea were defended with artillery and the front with a strong palisade made of wood. The three bastions were named La Concepción (SW); Ignacio de Loyola (SE), and San Miguel (NE). It has a total inside area of 2,025 sq. meters. The walls are 20 feet (6.1 m) high, 8 feet (2.4 m) thick and the towers are 30 feet (9.1 m) high from the ground level. The circumference is 1,248 feet (380 m). The sides are of unequal lengths and the one fronting the city is where one may find entry into the Fort. Fourteen cannons were mounted in their emplacements most of which are still there today. Work first started on May 8, 1565 with Miguel Lopéz de Legazpi breaking ground.

Luzon-Visayas-Luzon Roadtrip: Toledo, The Premier and Livable City in the West Coast ...

Toledo City, formerly known as Pueblo Hinulawan, is a 2nd class city in the province of Cebu.

Toledo lies on Tanon Strait across from Negros Island and the city of San Carlos, Negros Occidental. Toledo City is home to the Philippines' largest copper mine, owned by Atlas Consolidated Mining and Development Corporation; concentrates from the mine are shipped from the port of Sangi near Toledo. Low-quality coal has also been mined in the area, but little coal is mined today.

Important local crops include maize (corn) and coconuts. Toledo is connected to Cebu City, the provincial capital and second largest Philippine metropolitan area, by two stretches offroad that crossing the rugged spine of the island: the Naga-Uling Road and the alternate Manipis Road. A ferry runs between San Carlos and Toledo. During harvest season, migrant sugar workers from Cebu Island travel from Toledo to San Carlos to work in the sugar fields of Negros.

A small seaport provides Toledo with commercial inter-island service.
