Getsemani Neighbourhood in Cartagena

#fallishere The neighborhood of Getsemaní can best be described as “up and coming”. One of the nicest parts about being in Getsemaní is that the barrio itself, while appealing to tourists, still has plenty of locals living in it. This means that you will see people opening their doors of their colorful houses in the evenings to let the breeze in. You will see art everywhere, murals, street art, local art for sale, etc. The locals are almost always more than willing to mingle with you, the tourist, or with anybody, really. Because of this, you could say that Getsemaní has a “best-of-both-worlds” vibe. It’s not some plastic tourist area, but it’s still welcoming to visitors Tip : come early in the morning so can take nice pictures without the crowds
