Best view of Cartagena - Beautiful the convent, when you climb the hill you will find 12 crosses that mark the 12 stations of Jesus and at the end in At the top of the convent, it is small but wonderful and for those of us who are Catholics an important place of faith. The view of Cartagena is breathtaking, far the best , in Easter is filled as the pilgrimage is in that place and stops at each of the stations. It is best to order an uber, go upstairs and wait for you upstairs and then go downstairs with the same driver, the visit is short, it is a not very big place and only has one ticket, it is worth about $60,000 Colombian round trip including waiting . But you pay happy
