Without a doubt, in the Heroic Cartagena, remains the moorish architectonic legacy brought from the south of Spain; and we can state that this one is the richest legacy in America. Today, with the help of a specialized guide, you can still see the formal elements that constitute this architecture.

By the end of this tour we will conclude the city is a domestic arquitecture compendium: the houses with the balconies and their hallways, their inner yards and wells, etc; Civil Architecture: the goverment buildings of the time located usually in front of a square; militar architecture such as the city walls and forts; the troops quarter and strongholds, etc; and the imponent religious architecture: monasteries, convents, churches, etc. In this architecture a overlapping of styles happended, the republican over the colonial, which brings us to conclude that architecture in Cartagena is prominently Eclectic.
