Colonial splendor, Caribbean soul, and unfaltering pride, Cartagena has a spirit wholly its own. This Colombian treasure boasts numerous, can’t-miss landmarks including the pastel Teatro Adolfo Mejia, the famous Clock Tower, and the church of San Pedro Claver, originally built by Spanish Jesuits in the 1600s. Dating to the 16th century, the walled Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is full of cobblestone alleyways, bougainvillea and orange-yellow facades.

Ryan H. ★★★★★

I picked this up before a trip and ended up reading it cover to cover twice. The sections on the pastel Teatro Adolfo Mejia and the other landmarks gave me a much better sense of the old city than any generic guidebook.

Riley W. ★★★★★

The photos of the pastel Teatro Adolfo Mejia alone are worth it, but the writing on the colonial streets and Caribbean feel pulls you right in. I've flipped through it twice and keep spotting details I missed.

Alexander A. ★★★★★

Bought this before a trip and the section on the pastel Teatro Adolfo Mejia alone was worth it — I ended up planning a whole afternoon around it. The writing captures the city's Caribbean feel without reading like a generic guidebook.
