Cartagena, Colombia, was the first stop on my South American cruise on the Norwegian Sun. I was delighted that Dani Garcia, my fantastic Tour Guide, allowed me to interview her for my podcast. She'll take us through the city's historical adventures that date back to 1533. From San Pedro Claver, the famous priest who dedicated his life to helping and saving the enslaved people of the region, to Getsemani, the hip and trendy neighborhood of Cartagena, to the Palenque women in their bold and colorful outfits who represent the first free town for Africans in America… Cartagena is an amazing historic representation of the past fused with the present.
The fifth largest city in Columbia and the second largest in the region after Barranquilla, Cartagena was founded on June 1, 1533, and named after the city of the same name in Spain. In 1984, its colonial walled city and fortress were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Mixed architecture includes colonial, republican, and Italian styles intertwined into a rich history that dates back centuries.
