The three-story building, which was built by the Spanish army in 1854 on three acres of land and can accommodate more than 1,000 soldiers and their families, is one of the largest and most impressive buildings built by the Spanish royal family in the Americas. Its interior courtyard is large (not to be missed!) and it is one of the best examples of 19th century Spanish architecture, with some nice cafes and shops around. The second floor is the Museum of the Americas of Las Americas, with three permanent collections, focusing on African heritage, Native American and American popular art; in addition, the museum hosts an annual temporary art exhibition.
拉丁美洲博物馆的建筑风格属于特别漂亮的,从外面看上去非常的吸引人,因为它的建筑风格非常的精致独特,和我们亚洲完全不同的风格。但是进去以后除了感觉环境不错,其实里面的收藏物品很一般,不过总体还不错。
就在堡垒遗址的边上,旁边有大片的草坪,前面海浪拍打着礁石,景色很美。由于不懂西班牙文,就没进去看。
在拉丁美洲博物馆里可以了解波多黎各拉丁美族的历史和文化,对该国的贡献和发展都扮演重要角色。
