Cienfuegos is a beautiful nautical city set around Cuba's most amazing natural bay. The city is one of the newest settlements founded in Cuba, but it also boasts some of the most interesting architecture. Many of the original settlers in Cienfuegos were French in origin, and as a result, the city has retained a bit of the French spirit and elegance. The primary means of income starts with the trade of sugarcane, and a fortress was built in the mid 1700s to protect against Caribbean pirates. That fort, Castillo de Nuestra Señora de los Angeles de Jagua, is one of the main architectural attractions in Cienfuegos along with the Cathedral de la Purisma Concepcion and Palacio de Valle.
