Cartagena is possibly Colombia’s most popular travel destination. Within the old city walls you find an incredibly charming town, touristy, but beautiful nevertheless. Located on the Costa Caribe, you can easily get to other coastal pearls such as Santa Marta and Parque Tayrona.
The contrast to Cartagena’s downtown is revealed in Getsemani, a more ‘spartan’ part of Cartagena.
