Loved this neighborhood, beautiful artwork everywhere you look. Great place to stay and experience the difference between the day time and evening. Very vibrant and colourful barrio in Cartagena. A must see when in Cartagena.

Very colorful neighborhood that is worth to visit. Filled with beautiful murals, little cafes, bars, art galleries, and restaurants. Let yourself just wander around, take pictures and just enjoy it.

Very interesting area with lots of street art and old buildings painted in various hues. Many areas with art on the walls and bougainvillea cascading down. Quite beautiful. Many tiny alleyways with bars set up on the narrow sidewalks serving a myriad of drinks. The alleyways are decorated with flags, umbrellas, lights etc. each quite different.

Beautiful neighborhood to wander around in. At night it comes alive with music, lights and people. Great artwork every where you look. Great place to stay and experience the difference between night and day. Also close to the walled city, Castille amd wharf if you are catching a boat to some of the islands.

Dittos all the reviews before this one neighborhood (barrio) Getsemani is why we go to Cartegena. This is genuine Colombian. The vibrant colors, music and abundance does not quit. Charge up your phone, take pictures as you meander from street to street, you really can't get lost. Many shops to amuse you. Notice the Ventana de Barbe: the wood under the building windows. It is shaped like a man's beard. Take in the various parks and small plazas.

Relative to some years ago, Getsemane has been largely restored and now has beautiful galleries, small shops, bars and cafes. Worth a look. Do take precautions with personal property and probably best explored by daylight.

I doubt anyone would come to Cartagena and not visit this area of the city. It's very vibrant and colourful and at night especially busy and loud. Some great street art, loads of street bars where you can get a cocktail for around 15,000 COP, street entertainment, vendors selling all sorts, people just hanging out and restaurants. All feels pretty safe. Not sure I'd pick a hotel here again though as it was so noisy.

Loved all the art and the mere beauty of this neighborhood. It's almost like a maze, so many corridors and turns but you always end up in awe at all the flowers and paintings. We ate a great lunch here and found an air conditioned cafe to rest in for a while. Everyone is so accommodating and friendly! Nighttime is cool too to see all the lights above the streets.

So colorful and rich in history! So glad Cartagena was able to improve this area. So lively and cultural. Tons of wonderful graffiti with great stories. Lulu daiquiri is a must try in this area!

I appreciated having the private walking tour with Dimas. It was like having my very own personal connection to Cartagena. He was very knowledgeable about the Walled City and Getsemani. I feel this tour was more informative than being with a large group tour because you will get that special one on one attention and you can hear every description and detail he talked about while walking through the beautiful streets of Columbia.
