Guaita Tower Review

Built in the 15th century on a cliff fortress, the tower has a mini-weapons museum, climbing the top of the fortress can see the other fortress and the panoramic view of Titano Mountain, the last section is a vertical iron ladder, need to be hand and foot to climb up. Fortress is an iconic building printed on postcards and stamps.

One of San Marino's most famous attractions, there are three fortresses depicted on the flag and national emblem of San Marino. Guaita, the oldest and most famous of the three towers, was built in the 11th century. The fortress is located at the highest point, with a dangerous terrain overlooking the pastoral scenery under the mountain and the city of San Marino.

Guaida Fortress is the oldest and most famous of the three forts built on the Titano Mountain, built in the 11th century and one of the three forts depicted on the San Marino flag and national emblem. The second fort is Cesta, located at the highest point of the Titano Mountain, built in the 13th century. To go to the Guaida Fortress, you have to climb the mountain on the street up the mountain, stand on the fortress, and you can see the second fortress in the distance. Because it is far away, tourists generally can't stop. The fortress was built on a steep mountain. In ancient times, if you were invaded by external enemies, you could only guard the road on the mountain. It was difficult to attack from other places on the mountain. Just like the Great Wall of China, the fort wall and the steep mountain formed a good fortification.

The scenery of this place is OK, but the traffic is not big.
