O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Horse-drawn carriages once lined this plaza, giving it its name meaning "Square of the Carriages." At its center stands a statue of Pedro de Heredia, the Spanish conquistador who founded Cartagena in 1533.
Poudarki: Look up at the buildings surrounding the plaza and you will spot wooden balconies painted in vibrant yellows and blues, each with a different carved design. Those balconies tell the story of Cartagena's colonial merchant class, who built their homes and shops here to be close to the port's trading action.
Notranji nasveti
- Arrive at sunrise to photograph the empty plaza when the cobblestones are still wet from the morning cleaning.
- Grab a table at Café San Pedro on the northwest corner for the best people-watching position under the arches.
- Skip midday visits between 11 AM and 2 PM when the tropical sun bakes the open square with no shade.
- Watch for the horse-drawn carriages that still circle the plaza and offer 30-minute tours of the old city walls.
