Flights to Cartagena
Cartagena de Indias, also known as "The Heroic City", is a Colombian city located in the department of Bolívar, on the shores of the Caribbean Sea. This colonial city, founded in 1533, was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984 thanks to its well-preserved colonial architecture, walls, fortresses, and historical atmosphere.
What to do in Cartagena
Cartagena is an ideal destination for those seeking a unique cultural and historical experience. With temperatures ranging from 24°C to 31°C, you can:
- Explore the Walled City: Walk through its cobbled streets, admire its colonial houses and visit its imposing churches and fortresses. Don't miss San Felipe de Barajas Castle, the Clock Tower, and the Cartagena Cathedral.
- Enjoy the Caribbean Sea: Relax on the white-sand beaches, try water sports like diving or snorkeling, or take a boat trip around the bay.
- Experience Cartagena's Culture: Immerse yourself in traditional music, folk dances, and local cuisine. Don't miss the Caribbean Music Festival and the Independence Celebrations.
Flavors of Cartagena
Cartagena's cuisine is a blend of Afro-Colombian, indigenous, and European flavors. Don't miss:
- Fried Fish Platter: Traditionally made with mojarra fish, but you can also find sierra, red snapper, and snook. They are fried until golden brown and crispy, served with coconut rice and patacón.
- Mote de Queso: Small pieces of coastal cheese, yam, onion, sweet pepper, and garlic come together in a unique and delicious soup.
- Seafood Rice: Try this rice with shrimp, clams, fish, and squid. It is cooked with all the fresh seafood from the artisanal fishing of the natives.
- Hay Festival: Writers, journalists, scientists, Nobel laureates, singers, actors, film and television producers come together to celebrate creativity and music, filling the Heroic City with splendor.
