Come with Hi Cartagena travel on a cultural trip to Palenque, a well-known town with an interesting history. The town was declared “Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity” by UNESCO in 2005 and was also one of the first free towns in America. The town was created when African slaves fled from the Spanish into the desert, they created their own language there by mixing Spanish, Portuguese and native African languages. The town is really different from the rest of Colombia and it is really worth visiting as the cultural experience you will get is something really unique as the guide will take you from house to house so you can meet the locals and listen to their stories.
