Getsemaní is one of the most vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods in Cartagena,
located just outside the Walled City. Once a working-class area, Getsemaní has
transformed into a lively district known for street art, music, cafés, and strong local
identity. It offers a more local and artistic atmosphere compared to the historic old town.
Walking through Getsemaní allows travelers to see colorful murals, open plazas, and
everyday community life. The neighborhood is especially lively in the evenings, when
locals and visitors gather for food, music, and social activities.
For travelers, Getsemaní provides an authentic cultural experience and a deeper
connection to Cartagena’s modern creative scene.
