Go through the castle completely
and we'll go to the museum.
And from there we will continue the journey
until the light of day or the light of night holds us.

Today we are visiting the castle of San Juan de Ulua.
This is a large prison complex.
This used to be a palace.

The admission fee is only $85 pesos per person.
This is called a baluartes.
He has different names.
We're going through one by one.
We 'll teach you.
How come they were separating a little bit
Because the humidity is so high that it separates the sea.
Growing up, you're going to be separated.
Yes, they're separating.
Were you together at any time?
Estabban in some moment.
You were in a classic connection by some bridge.
Or for someone, like the one parked.
Here come the boats
I'm bringing all the food for the prisoners.
And when he was president here
I was reaching for gold
For the big bosses here.
Okay, look, where we just came in
The punishment cells were
For the criminals
With a major death rate, like this.
So they can't escape.
You know, the gaps that you're in,
If you can see,
They're very narrow.
and con un barrote al final
Where no one can get a hand.
There was nothing more they had the right to the sunlight
For what is the sky,
As you can see in the gallery.
Y en la ventana, que es lo único y in the window, that is the only thing
I can bring you air and sun.
A ver, passale. I'm going to see you.
No, I want to close the door.
And here what is?
These are one of the three prisons
More of the other.
The mayor.
Security.
- What?
Son of three.
The hell, the portatorio
And the new place.
Can you see, imagine here
Prisoners with children 10, 15
more people
with this
The luminosity of the light.
Practically nothing.
The light behind is one of the windows.
Now we have concluded what is the walk
The Commission shall be assisted by the European Parliament.
We passed that fort,
the municipal building,
It was a prison.
You're now a museum.
Let's go to the old one.
The houses of Hernán Cortés.
Very well, very nice walk.
Okay, we're gonna say goodbye in this place,
But we're going to go another.
