Cartagena, Colombia articles
Cartagena Colombia, also known as Cartagena de Las Indias, is the country's most popular (and developed) tourism destination. The historic district of the city, alongside several budding hotspots such as Bocagrande, Castillo Grande, and La Boquilla make Cartagena one of the preeminent destinations for travelers and investors, not to mention the picturesque Rosario Islands which lie off Cartagena’s coast.
Cartagena Colombia’s tourism industry is highly developed and specialized and its real estate sector is booming with both new (skyscraper condos) and old (historic properties). Cartagena has set something of a precedent when it comes to customer service and besides a number of new cruiseliners now stopping regularly at its shores, tourism has increased multi-fold just over the past several years. Cartagena is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site by the United Nations and is considered most special in its ability to retain old-world charm.
Cartagena has begun to play the role of poster child for Colombia investment and tourism progress: a perfect example of an increasingly safe, beautiful, and interesting place to visit and live. Cartagena is as diverse as it is entertaining: with ancient churches butting up against new-age art galleries, with downtown high-rises just minutes away from chill beach clubs. The cost of living in Cartagena, Colombia has gotten more and more expensive with the increase of foreigners, but it still manages a predominantly local flare. As much tourism and FDI Cartagena reportedly experiences, the sight of foreigners (or at least the traditional out-of-place tourist) is still quite rare.
