St. Angelo's Fort This historical fort, built in 1505 AD by Sir Fancisco DeAlmeiyda, the first Portuguese Viceroy of India,, is situated near the sea coast about 2 KM away from Kannur town. This fort has a legendary past. Having witnessed several wars for seizing the control of the fort, the British flag flew over it finally in 1790.

Interesting old architecture and the gardens look well cared for. Nicely composed and presented. Thanks for this one.

After a bit of an absence, partly vacation but mostly tax season...busy for bookkeeping businesses... I'm glad to be back out here with at least 'some' regularity. I've missed everyone and am glad to have a little more time again.

Very nice job, indeed, Arnold. I like your composition and the history lesson as well.

Very interesting series on this fort. Is it used for anything today or just a historical monument? Your photo is nice and sharp and I like that you were able to include some of the gardens.
