Bright, bold and beautiful- Las Bovedas can be described as the shopper's heaven if you are looking to buy souvenirs and traditional Colombian craft items. Stretching from Santa Clara to Santa Catalina Fortress, the 47 painted archways house long arrays of colorful souvenir shops, well stocked with emeralds, hammocks, hats and molas and many more. Get spoiled for choice when you shop for souvenirs and gifts for friends or colleagues back home. The shop keepers are very friendly and will offer goods at a reasonable price. Bargaining is absolutely fine. It is a fun place to explore and is ideal for photography.Bargaining is ok if you think the goods are overpriced, you can always ask them for a better rate in a nice way. There are numerous things to buy here so make up your mind before you start shopping. Taking a shopping bag with you will be a good idea, some shops may not give you bags. Carry spices and other herbs if buying, in a separate pouch. The aroma can easily spread to other things in your bag. This stunning marketplace is a must visit if you are in Cartagena.
