This hill is the site of the original colonial settlement, and it's well worth visiting for the views and to stroll around the sturdy ruins of the 18th-century Spanish fort, where colonial riches were once amassed and counted before being shipped off to Mexico City or the Philippines. The place is still guarded by a collection of corroded cannons. On the way up to it are the gorgeous ruins of the settlement's church, Templo de la Virgen del Rosario , built in 1769.
