Cultural tourism and urban management in Cartagena

Overview

Cartagena is experiencing a focus on its cultural heritage and tourism. The Enrique Escudero de Castro Municipal Archaeological Museum is set to reopen on September 30 following renovations to its gardens, concierge area, and ground floor exhibition halls. This reopening includes the launch of a temporary exhibition, ‘Plastihistoria del Traje’, which examines the evolution of fashion through Roman-era clothing and local ethnographic costumes.

As the city gains attention as a tourist destination, interest remains high in sites such as the Roman Theatre, the Castillo de la Concepción, and the National Museum of Underwater Archaeology. Concurrently, local debates have emerged regarding urban management and the enforcement of municipal regulations in the city center, specifically concerning street markets and public space usage.
