This is the largest and oldest square in the old town and was used as a parade ground. In colonial times, all the important governmental and administrative buildings were here. The old Royal Customs House was restored and is now the City Hall. A statue of Christopher Columbus stands in the center of the square.

Like the name says it, this is the place where the ships that were coming to Cartagena were going through the customs. Pretty plaza with some nice architecture (mayor of the city sits on this plaza) and Christopher Columbus monument. Also, you will find a tourist information office here. They were very helpful and recommended a free tour of Cartagena.

Original entry way into city walls, people watch, vendors, street art, clubs, dining, drinking and just Cartagena in general strolls by followed by horse drawn carriages.

Ingreso a la ciudad amurallada. Encuentra dulces típicos de la región y es el punto de inicio para conocer.
