Baluarte de Santa Catalina

One of the most beautiful plans in Cartagena is walking along the walls of the historic center at sunset. A highlight of this walk is the Baluarte (bastion) of Santa Catalina. What makes this location special is that in the evenings, locals gather outside the city walls, below the bastion, to fly their kites, resulting in a beautiful scene combined with the sunset. While most of the city center walls can be walked on, we recommend the section between Plaza Santa Teresa and Baluarte de Santa Catalina.
