(Translated by Google) One of the early historic forts in Tidore, not far from the Spanish landing
(Original)
Salah satu benteng awal yang bersejarah di tidore, tidak jauh dr pendaratan spanyol
(Translated by Google) This place is a historical place where the Spanish first landed in Maluku, and could be the first place the Spanish occupied Indonesian territory. It is also said that there was a fort here, but the remains of the fort no longer exist.
Visiting this place is just to wash your eyes, seeing the view of the Maitara Strait and Ternate Island is also an activity that is worth planning, it's just that there are no public facilities such as toilets or food stalls because the place has not been managed well.
(Original)
tempat ini adalah salah satu tempat bersejarah di mana di sini merupakan tempat pertama kali bangsa Spanyol mendarat di Maluku, dan bisa jadi tempat pertama kali bangsa Spanyol menempati wilayah Indonesia. Di sini juga juga konon terdapat sebuah benteng, namun sisa2 bentengnya sudah tidak ada lagi.
Mengunjungi tempat ini hanya sekedar cuci mata, melihat pemandangan selat Maitara dan Pulau Ternate juga merupakan kegiatan yang patut diagendakan,hanya saja tidak ada fasilitas umum seperti toilet, maupun warung2 makan karena tempatnya belum dikelola dengan baik.
No sign of a castle any more. Some 20 years ago there were some walls recognizable, but there is nothing left now. The Spanish embassy in Jakarta has erected a small monument in the memory of the two ships (Trinidad and Victoria) of Magellan’s fleet who spent 1,5 months here in 1521 (Noc.-Dec.), during their journey of the circumnavigation of the world

(Translated by Google) I thought it was a big fort, but it turned out it was only very small and one monument with a short narrative. The beach is also dirty. I don't recommend it for tourists to visit.

Saya kira benteng besar, ternyata hanya kecil sekali dan satu monumen dengan narasi singkat. Pantainya pun kotor. Tidak saya rekomendasikan untuk didatangi oleh wisatawan.
