It is adorned with monuments honoring numerous Filipino heroes. This park holds significant historical importance as the site of José Rizal's execution by Spanish colonial forces. THE DUNGEONS The dungeons, once a powder magazine for the Spaniards, were designed to store gunpowder, not to serve as a place of torment. The story of flooding these dungeons to drown prisoners is simply untrue, considering their original use. FORT SANTIAGO Fort Santiago, established in 1571 by the Spaniards, is one of Manila's oldest fortifications. Originally, it was a simple palisaded structure made of logs and earth, constructed by Rajah Soliman in the native settlement of Maynila.

The fort faced destruction in 1574 during an attack by the Chinese forces led by Limahong.

It is not only a National Cultural Treasure and Historical Landmark but has also been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1993 as one of the four Baroque Churches of the Philippines.
