The ideal 3-day itinerary in Cartagena
A walled city, white-sand beaches, Caribbean food and nights of live music: how to make the most of three days in the jewel of the Colombian Caribbean.
Culture
Getsemaní
Murals, squares and music in the street. The neighborhood to explore without a map.
Why we recommend it
Getsemaní is Cartagena’s liveliest neighborhood, just outside the walled city. Its streets are full of murals, umbrellas and colorful bunting, and every corner has something to see.
At night, Plaza de la Trinidad fills with music, street performers and food stands. It’s a neighborhood to wander without a map.
