All of Cartagena’s major museums, plazas, and churches are consolidated in El Centro. This part of the city starts at the Puerta del Reloj and extends outwards, covering roughly 50 blocks filled with colorful colonial buildings draped with bougainvillea. If you have just one day in Cartagena, you will spend it in this neighborhood, as there is much to see and do here. The shopping, hotels, and restaurants in El Centro are the most expensive in the city. Still, it is worth the extra cash just to meander the quaintest and most breathtaking city centers in all of Colombia.
