Castillo San Felipe de Barajas

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

The city of Cartagena, Colombia has a storied history.  During Colonial days, the city became the most important port in the Spanish Empire, serving as the hub through which the vast silver and gold deposits of the Western Hemisphere passed en route to the mother country.  Key to the defense of Cartagena was the Castillo San Felipe de Barajas (San Felipe Castle), which sits in a highly strategic position on a hill overlooking the city.  Seen here in this drone video by rkmaerial, the great fortification was built beginning in 1536.
