@mdrguezThe growing importance of the port of Havana for the New World made it a target for corsairs, pirates, and enemy fleets. For this reason, the government, by order of King Philip II, ordered the construction of a fortress to safeguard its waters. Work began in 1589 and stretched on until 1640. Directed by the Italian engineer Juan Bautista Antonelli, it was carried out using the most advanced concepts of the time. Unfortunately, Antonelli died before the construction was completed.

@jesuslnrsA big hug to everyone at Worldmappin! I wish you all a great start to the weekend... Today I want to share a little about my trip to Madrid, the city I explored the most when visiting Spain, and which at the same time was like seeing without touching, since it was the most crucial days of Holy Week and everything was closed, and at the same time all my walks were generally at night... These images from Holy Thursday are from the city center.

@dtamWe traveled to the small, landlocked country of Rwanda for one main reason, to go deep into the Virunga Mountains and trek to the mountain gorillas. This is the same place, and the same gorilla families that Dian Fossey brought to the attention of the world with her field work and book, "Gorillas in the Mist." Now, it was our time to enter the misty mountains of Rwanda, and have that same shared experience, or becoming part of the gorilla family for a short time.
