Activity itinerary

Plaza de San Pedro Claver (Pass by)

For the church of San Pedro Claver, in contrast to the surrounding decor, beauty does not rhyme with colour. Both sober and severe, this religious building was built between 1700 and 1756 by a group of Jesuits.

Plaza de la Aduana (Pass by)

In size and age, no one can steal the show at Plaza de la Aduana. Initially, it occupied the central place of Cartagena. This explains why many administrative and government buildings once took up residence on its outskirts.

Hospital Naval de Cartagen (Pass by)

It is almost logical that as close to the sea, you meet the Naval Museum of Cartagena. It doesn’t seem like it, but this great cultural space is one of the best places to learn and recreate the city’s past.

Cra. 3a #33-1 (Pass by)

Colonial in style and preceded by an imposing baroque coral gate, the Palace of the Inquisition does not have too much trouble escalating among the most beautiful buildings of the city. But, like anything that may seem beautiful from afar, this building turns out to be far from beautiful when you look at its not-so-innocent past.

Calle de los Santos de Piedra (Pass by)

If there’s one Attraction that no one wants to miss when visiting Cartagena’s historic centre, it’s the Cathedral of Santa Catalina. At the same time, let's be honest, it's almost impossible to turn a blind eye to her, as we can see her from afar.

Plaza Santo Domingo (Pass by)

Coming to Plaza Santo Domingo is to set foot in one of the most popular places in Cartagena. Named after the church that is held in one of its three corners, this public space never lacks animation.

Walled City of Cartagena (Pass by)

Classic among the classics, getting a nice viewpoint from the city walls is 99% safe. There is no doubt that the height effect, more or less important, has something to do with it.

Walled City of Cartagena (Pass by)

Whether you’re walking along them or walking along them, the walls of Cartagena are among the must-sees of the walk. Firstly, they help us enjoy the sea breeze and secondly they give us privileged access to the best sunsets in the city.

Teatro Adolfo Mejia ( Teatro Heredia ) (Pass by)

With its pastel colour, sweets pink, and old-fashioned lettering, the Heredia Adolfo Mejía theatre surprises anyone who comes across it with its singular beauty. Built in 1911, on the occasion of the first centenary of Cartagena’s independence, the building presents an Italian style with Caribbean influences, restored twice in 1970 and 1988.

Cartagena (Pass by)

The one now known as Cartagena das Indias was originally the land of the Calamarí, an Amerindian tribe whose name means People of the Sea. In 1533 Pedro de Heredia, Castilian conquistador, landed on the mainland and founded the city.

Las Bovedas (Pass by)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and you climb like this to 47 arches? Then it’s all right, you are well next to Las Bóvedas. Built between 1792 and 1796, this interminable building is considered the last colonial structure of the fortified perimeter of Cartagena.

Cartagena (Pass by)

If there’s one thing to do or redo in Cartagena, it’s adorn yourself with your best pair of walking shoes and walk the straight streets of the historic centre. Former stronghold of the colonial upper bourgeoisie, this kind of large village, inside the ramparts, delights in no time anyone who approaches it.

Cl. 36 #6-46 (Pass by)

In Cartagena, like almost everywhere else in South America, there is a name that is very often likely to come back to your ears. It is that of Simón Bolívar.

Universidad de Cartagena (Pass by)

You take a picture of her in all directions, you come to her door to contemplate her head upside down, you look for the best perspective that will highlight her, whether from the front, from the back, or from the side...

Plaza De Los Coches (Pass by)

Served on the one hand by the Torre del Reloj and on the other by the Portal de los Dulces, Plaza de los Coches is the living heart of Cartagena. Over the years, but especially the events of all kinds it has received, this public space has more than once seen its name evolve.

Getsemani (Pass by)

Centenario Park is the “green” border between the Getsemaní and San Diego areas and is Cartagena’s prime location for isolating yourself from the urban turmoil. Its inauguration in 1911, when it had not even been completed for lack of funds, was part of the commemoration of the first centenary of the city’s independence as a former Spanish colony.

CLINICA SAN FELIPE DE BARAJAS URGENCIAS (Pass by)

Added to all the walls of the old town, the castle San Felipe de Barajas, which can be seen in the distance, represents the largest Spanish fortification ever built in the “Americas”. In other words, it is an obligatory point of interest when staying in the Colombian city.

Getsemani (Pass by)

Situated away from the walled city, the Getsemaní district is no less interesting. Under Spanish rule, it was in this perimeter that a large part of the slaves, forcibly brought back from West Africa, settled before being sold to the port of Cartagena.

Parque de la Marina (Pass by)

From time to time, it is advisable to step back or take steps aside to find another aesthetic facet of a destination. That’s how it is, you must dare to detour! Bringing you right into the middle of the marina, our intention was very thoughtful: to take you up a notch the desire to get to know Cartagena, starting by guessing its riches.

Torre del Reloj (Pass by)

Boca del Puente, Puerta del Reloj, Torre del Reloj are all names given to this inseparable Attraction of Cartagena. Built in the 18th century by a military engineer, the 30-metre-high monument was once the only gateway to the walled city.

Portal de Los Dulces (Pass by)

To all those concerned about their line or dental health, we apologise in advance, but this gourmet address is a key step in the discovery of Cartagena. Historically reserved for the slave trade during the colonial era, the arches under which you wander today have become the place where visitors’ and locals’ palaces delight in the best confectionery in the Caribbean.
