CATEDRAL
Santa Marta Catedral is Colombia’s oldest
church. Work on the enormous,
whitewashed building was completed only
towards the end of the 18th century, as a
result of which it is possible to discern the
influence of architectural styles from
different periods of history.

Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino is a 17th
century hacienda and the final resting place
of Simón Bolívar, the Spanish American
general famously known as “The Liberator”
who freed South America from colonial rule.
The hacienda and its estates were a centre
for sugarcane cultivation and processing,
with a trapiche (sugarcane mill) and
destileria (distillery).
The hacienda grounds have several
memorials to Bolivar, the largest of which is
the Altar de la Patria in the centre of the
estate. To its right is the Museo Bolivario,
housing art works donated by Latin
American artists from Colombia, Venezuela,
Ecuador, Peru, Panama and Bolivia, the
countries freed from Spanish rule by
Bolivar.
