It has a storied history of conflicts with the major world powers over the centuries. It was the location where Spanish troops faced their main defeat at San Juan Hill on July 1, 1898, during the Spanish-American War. Spain later surrendered to the United States after the destruction of its Atlantic fleet just outside Santiago\u2019s harbor.\r\n\r\n\"IMG_0283\"<\/a>\r\nSunset over the Cathedral (taken from the Casa Granda)<\/b>\r\n
