The building was built in 1846 as part of the Imperial government's naval fortifications at Kingston Port during the Oregon crisis in 1845-46, one of the last fortifications built by the British in the North American colony. As a regular military barracks, it was not fully armed until 1862, but after 1849, it became obsolete due to the rapid development of offensive military technology.

    There are only two tourist core areas in Kingston, one is downtown with City Hall as the center, with Kingston sign nearby, and the other is Queens University in the suburbs, which takes half a day to travel

    Chasing the mark of history I came to Kingston for a movie and had a strong interest in Mattelota. Each tower in Kingston has its own characteristics. It is very close to the seaside park and can watch the flag here. Defensive Tagalog We strolled along King's Avenue and walked west for ten minutes to the Ruins Park. The place by the sea was very interesting and the surroundings were very good. There is a special trail by the sea. If you are tired, you can sit on a bench and enjoy the scenery. When we visit around, we will find that there is a tower, white walls and red bricks, the top of the tower is pointed. Go in and see for $5 tickets, and the tower gives you an idea of how former Canada was defensive. The tower has three floors, and on the highest floor you can see the fort and many views. All of the things here are historical imprints, cannon was used at the time, this small tower is designed for local residents. It is a place worth seeing. The staff here is friendly. Warm reminder: 1. You can travel by car, there is a parking lot near the tower 2. The beach is very suitable for taking pictures, remember to concave and have a camera.

    Travel to the National Historic Site of Mornita ( Murney Tower National Historic Site). Mornita was once a key defensive building in Kingston, a circular fortress on the banks of the St. Lawrence River, built in 1846.
