Sunset in Key West

We started the day walking around town exploring all the sites. Key West has a lot of historic buildings to see.

The Strand Theater opened in the 1920's and became Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum in 1993. It has since became a Walgreens.

In 1969, the Coast Guard decommissioned this lighthouse and it was later turned into a museum.

The cemetery is 19 acres and it is estimated that 100,000 people are buried there. This is a lot considering the population is only around 30,000. You will notice that, in many case, tombs are stacked on top of each other.

The Southernmost Point Marker is a popular area for photographs and only 90 miles from cuba.

Completed in 1866, Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park played a major role in the Civil War and Spanish-American War. Today, this area offers some of the most popular beaches in Key West.
