Baluarte de San Pedro
A bastion in the northeast corner of the old town with a local handicraft shop, where you can climb to the top for views of the city walls and the layout of the bastion.
The San Pedro bastion was built in 1702 and is one of eight bastions around the old town, located in its northeast corner. Inside, the bastion now houses a display and sales space for handicrafts, where you can buy Panama hats, embroidery, and other Campeche specialties. Climbing to the top gives you a clear view of the bastion's polygonal structure and the streets of the old town. Admission is low or free, and you can connect it on foot with Puerta de Tierra and the San Francisco bastion.
