John75 viewsThere is a whole series of tunnels under the fort. They used to use them to store the gold before it could be sent back to Spain. They also stored tons of gun powder down there.

Volcan de Lodo El Totumo63 viewsThe crater is filled with lukewarm mud with the consistency of cream. Legend has it that the volcano once belched fire but the local priest, seeing it as the work of the devil, frequently sprinkled it with holy water. He not only succeeded in extinguishing the fire, but also in turning the insides into mud to drown the devil.
