Hi Dear Steemians, today I will show you a little part of my country Venezuela... let´s talk about Fortin de la Galera fort in Juan Griego City.

Juan Griego is a small city in the north of the Margarita Island that is dependent on commerce to support its economy.

There are many shops with very attractive prices in Juan Griego. It is said that the city was named after a shipwrecked Greek man who managed to swim to the coast. The view of the bay is simply just amazing, and very romantic.

Watching the sunset at the Fortin de La Galera fort is one of the highlights of a holiday on Margarita Island. All Venezuelan have pictures of ourselves sitting on one of its cannons.

Many tourists enjoy eating at one of the restaurants located on the bay so that they can enjoy the last of the sunset. The quality of the meals has declined lately, but you can always have a cold beer or a nice cocktail.
