Things to Do and See
in Cartagena, Colombia, Part 2
In this blog I will continue presenting the best
tourist attractions in Cartagena. Only a day will
not be enough to see all of them. That’s why,
I offer you to stay in some of the Cartagena hotels.
In this way you guarantee your memorable experience
there. |
1.
La Popa Convent
Alternately called a convent and a monastery, this colonial
complex is a great palce to visit for a look at colonial
religious life, superb views of the city, the Caribbean
and nearby islands.
2.
Playa Blanca
Playa Blanca,definitely is the best beach close to Cartagena
– you can reach it overland or by boat.With its white
sand & crystal water Playa Blanca is probably one of
the best “playas” in Colombia! It is definitly
worth to stay there for some days. There are several places
where you can rent hammocks, get food & drinks.
3.
Las Bovedas
Shop and enjoy art in what once were jail cells or storerooms
for the fortresses.
4.
Nightlife
Plenty of choices in Bocagrande, in the center of town,
El Centro, and Getsemani for tabernas, discos and bars.
Use caution in Getsamani, but all the nightlife is lively,
with Caribbean and Colombian music. Take a nap before you
go nightclubbing.
To sum up, I would say that
there is much more that can be seen in Cartagena. If you
still hesitate where to spend your holiday, Cartagena is
the perfect destination for you, because it is not famous
only for its beaches, there everyone can find something
for themselves and will remember the time spent in Cartagena
forever.
