Create an itinerary including Plaza Santo Domingo

Surrounded by colorful buildings and verandas, Plaza Santo Domingo serves as a hub for the city's outdoor dining and cafe culture. Head for the square and marvel at the brightly hued homes surrounding it, or snap a picture with the delightfully chubby Botero statue in the center. Don't miss stopping in at the 16th-century church, one of the city's most famous landmarks. You can wander the square's many stalls selling local arts, crafts, and souvenirs, or grab something to eat at the numerous outdoor restaurant tables. Afterwards, kick back with a coffee or a drink and enjoy the plaza's bustling activity. Make Plaza Santo Domingo part of your personalized Cartagena itinerary using our Cartagena trip itinerary builder app.

A nice small plaza with a couple of restaurants with outside seating. Nothing special except perhaps the Bo-tero statue. Statues of his have cropped up in some surprising cities we've visited.

Loved the beauty. The only thing that made this place ugly was the CONSTANT harassment to buy things. I get it, that's how some make the most of their living but this isn't somewhere you go to relax. We got used to it after a while though. Other than that, I would visit again.
