Cartagena

概览

Cartagena's walled old town is the most beautiful colonial city in the Americas: bougainvillea balconies, plazas, the fortress of San Felipe and a Caribbean sea wall to walk at sunset. Getsemani, once the barrio outside the walls, is now the backpacker and nightlife quarter with its own charm; Bocagrande is a strip of high-rises; the Rosario islands and Baru are the beaches the city itself lacks. It is hot, humid, expensive by Colombian standards and worth every peso for a week.

为什么值得一去

For the Caribbean and the colonial Americas in one walkable city, salsa and street life, and islands an hour away.

实用信息

安全

The walled city and Getsemani are heavily policed and safe for walking by night; phone theft, aggressive touting, drug dealers in Getsemani and overcharging are the usual issues; avoid beaches and barrios outside the centre after dark.

常见骗局

Palenqueras charging for photos (pay or do not take the picture), street vendors' 'gifts', taxi overcharging, boat trips that skip stops, and bars with inflated bills.

网络连接与远程办公

Decent fibre in hotels, apartments and cafes (30 to 100 Mbps); coworking at Selina and a few spaces in the centre; 4G is reliable.

A short-stay favourite more than a nomad base: the heat, prices and limited coworking send most remote workers to Medellin after a few weeks, but a month in Manga with fans and sea walks is a fine thing.
