What is Canada's walled city?

Answer 1

Campeche, on the west coast of the Yucatan Penninsula in Mexico, has a very substantial wall built by the Spanish to fend off English and French buccaneers. It is a World Heritage Site. We visited it a month ago. The old walled city is in beautiful condition, almost as good a Cartagena de Indias, Colombia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campeche,_Campeche Quebec is another walled city in North America. Algonquin for "where the river narrows", Quebec was originally a French port in the early 19th century. It was built at the narrowest part of the St. Lawrence river so that no ship could sail towards the Great Lakes, or to the Atlantic Ocean, with out permission from whoever controlled it. Other walled cities in North America include St. Augustine, Florida and Charleston, South Carolina.

Spanish St. Augustine was the first of only three walled cities ever constructed in North America; the other two are (English) Charleston, South Carolina and (French) Quebec City, Canada. Castillo de San Marcos National Monument, Florida
