If you are into art, you are going to love Cartagena. This city is overflowing with creativity. Whether it’s singers, dancers, fashion designers, painters, or graffiti artists, Cartagena attracts and creates artists of all kinds. The city itself feels like a constant source of inspiration.

My first step toward learning about the African roots of Cartagena was visiting Palenque village (you may see different spellings of the name). I chose to take a guided tour in order to learn about the village’s history from a reliable and knowledgeable source.
