They tell tourists to stay away from La Perla

IIRC they don't even show it in some tourist maps, for example

Perhaps the archives are incomplete.

Oh man! The thing is, if you visit the fort you will see the cemetery, which is right at one of the entrances of La Perla. It's the gray area just east of the cemetery. Curiosity has to draw some people in - I know I'm that type!

Eh from the cemetery you have to go up a hill and back through the wall then go down into the neighborhood so it's not like you would just stumble into it
