CITY
Barranquilla
And its venue
Puerta de Oro,
Centro de Eventos del Caribe
Vía 40 # 79b - 06 Barranquilla, Atlántico
Barranquilla, known as the Golden Gate of Colombia, Curramba La Bella or La Arenosa.
Geographically, it is the point where the river Magdalena flows into the Caribbean. It is privileged, and a strategic pole for economic, industrial and tourist development in the Caribbean region, and as a whole.
How to get there
Aside from being an ideal place for business and investment, Barranquilla is also well for being the cradle of great musicians and cultural traditions. Its Carnival, its people, its food, and its unique carácter means that anyone who knows it will remember it for ever.
What can you do in Barranquilla? Here are some options:
- Visit the Gran Malecon: This is an open-air space, with stunning views of the river Magdalena, and next door to it is the gastronomic center of "Caimán del Río”.
- Puerta de Oro is the Caribbean events center: It is a meeting-place for experiences, knowledge, and growth - a modern facility for the most important events and shows in the region, looking to position Barranquilla as the business capital of the Colombian Caribbean.
- A window on the world: A monument inspired by the ideology of a local businessman "if they slam the door in your face, you can always get in through the window": a positive message for society today. It is located at the end of the industrial corridor of the Ring Road, connecting with Via 40.
- The Shark Fin: A modern monument, 100 feet high, inspired by the local soccer team, Junior Barranquilla. It is located on the Gran Malecón.
- El Prado neighborhood: Take a walk through the streets of one of the most iconic and traditional neighbourhoods. You will also find very interesting offer there for eating out.
- The Carnival Museum: This is were Carnival is played out 365 days a year. Go there, discover the history one of Colombia's most important festivals, gain first-hand experience of colour and flavour that the traditional carnival has celbrated year by year.
- Stadiums: The Metropolitan and the Edgar Renteria Baseball Stadium are the homes of the favourite sports of many in Barranquilla: soccer and baseball.
- Eating out: Visitors can enjoy a number of local dishes, particularly fries, the famous water-melon based patillazo, guandú soup, doughs of different kinds, fish with coconut-rice and plantain, coconut cakes, black sausages, and many more.
