Lonely Planet review for Fortaleza

The old fort was built by the Portuguese in the mid-19th century near the site of an earlier fort. Inside is a garden and a small museum with remnants from the era of early Portuguese forays to the area.

    best conserved sight

    nhatinha recommends this,

    The Fort is the best conserved tourist sight in Maputo and is a great place to visit before or after visiting the market in front on saturdays and sundays.

    Great place to go to spend a afternoon reading or studying, specially in the winter.
