With thick walls and a strategic position on the waterfront overlooking Taytay Bay, Fort Santa Isabel guarded against attacks from Moro pirates during the Spanish era. Erected by the Augustinian Recollects (an order of Catholic priests) in 1667, the fort today is a pleasant retreat with a well-maintained garden, a small museum and sweeping views of the bay.
