About Cartagena

Cartagena, ved Colombias caribiske kyst, er en ommuret kolonial havneby med blomsterpyntede altaner, farverige pladser og varme, musikfyldte aftener.

Den ommurede gamle by, et UNESCO-verdensarvssted, er en labyrint af brostensbelagte gader og pladser kantet af pastelfarvede huse, kirker og bougainvillea. Urtårnsporten fører ind til Plaza de los Coches, og katedralen, San Pedro Claver-kirken og Inkvisitionens Palads ligger alle inden for få gader. At gå på de tykke volde ved solnedgang er et lokalt ritual.

Top-ranked sights in Cartagena: Rosario Islands (Islas del Rosario), Old Town Cartagena, Santo Domingo Church (Iglesia de Santo Domingo).
