Terceira, the Azores' Historic Island: Where to Eat, Stay, and Play | Condé Nast Traveler

"Perched near Monte Brasil, the Fortaleza de São João Baptista is an imposing, historically important fort that played key roles during the 16th-century Spanish occupation and the Liberal Wars in the 1820s, making it a must-see for anyone interested in Terceira's maritime and military past." - Chadner Navarro
