Cartagena Attractions

The port city of Cartagena is an absolute delight with its historic buildings, narrow alleys and pristine beaches. It is arguably the most colourful town on the Caribbean coast known for its colonial architecture and white sandy beaches. Cartagena's history dates back to the Pre-Columbian era in 4000 BC. After this period, more developed conglomerations appeared that primarily settled along the coast. Much of Cartagena's documented history is deeply rooted in the Spanish colonisation from the time it was founded 1533 by Pedro de Heredia to its independence in 1811. Today, the city still retains its colonial charm and at the same time, has evolved into a modern urban centre.

Things to do in Cartagena

Guests aboard flights to Cartagena will love the contrast of the old and the new. The city is divided into two parts: the Old Town and the modern barrio of Getsemani. Wander along narrow alleys, gaze at lovely buildings, enjoy the sea breeze or visit museums. At night, mingle with the locals and have your favourite drinks at a bar or café. Later on, dance to intoxicating salsa music or just savour a leisurely dinner with friends. Cartagena is ridiculously charming. It is no surprise that Gabriel Garcia Marquez's birthplace will lure you back for another visit.
