beautiful bar, good vibe, great cocktails. You will most likely need to wait to get in late at night or on the weekends. I also like sitting by the bar, they have skillful bartenders

great views and good for drinks. The food is not great but the mariquitas with cheese are good to snack on. Walking on the old wall is a must and this could be a good stop for a drink and hopefully some life music

Very colorful neighborhood. You can go during the daytime and take pictures or a must during the night if you are looking for nightlife. Tons of places to go to listen to live music or to go dance.

Nature
The Colombia National Aviary is located about 90 minutes south of Cartagena on the Island of Barú. Spanning 7 hectares, you can see over 135 species and nearly 2,000 birds at the Cartagena Aviary. It is extremely well done, and well worth the visit. Although not the easiest place to get to, it also isn’t that difficult. A must for nature lovers!
