Start on a warm, salt-tinged evening at the old city gate and you’ll feel St. Augustine shift from a tourist town to a place that remembers. The stones at your feet are not just pavement; they hold accounts of storms, sieges, and nights kept watch by sentries. As the audio begins, voices place you beside bakeries, cemeteries, and the fortified walls where the past keeps a steady pulse.
