Famous Landmarks
Walled City
10.3910°N, 75.5144°W
The Walled City of Cartagena, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984, is the best-preserved colonial complex in South America. Its 11 kilometres of ramparts, bastions, and monumental gates protected the riches of the New World from pirates and enemy fleets for centuries. Behind the walls lies a maze of cobblestone streets lined with colonial houses featuring carved wooden balconies.
Castillo San Felipe de Barajas
10.3910°N, 75.5144°W
Castillo San Felipe de Barajas is the largest fortress built by the Spanish in the Americas. Erected from 1536 on San Lázaro hill, this military engineering masterpiece features an underground network of tunnels designed to amplify sounds and detect enemy approach. It withstood every assault, including the siege by English Admiral Vernon in 1741.
Getsemaní
10.3910°N, 75.5144°W
Getsemaní, a former working-class neighbourhood outside the walls, has become Cartagena's vibrant and bohemian heart. Its streets covered in colourful murals, plazas alive with champeta musicians and dancers, and terraces where travellers and locals mingle make it the city's most authentic and creative quarter, with an unmistakably Caribbean atmosphere.

The sky of Cartagena

Tropical nights above the Caribbean Sea offer exceptional observation conditions, with a spectacular Milky Way from December to April when the dry season brings skies of remarkable clarity.
