Talk:Cartagena, Colombia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Flag Removal - Since I'm new to wikipedia, I couldn't find out how to leave a message so I'm writing it here. I apologize for removing this flag. I thought it was incorrect and had been trying to find the city's old coat of arms.

[edit] Proper Names

I really didn’t like the fact that the places, neighbourhoods, and historic landmarks, which have their proper name in Spanish are being shown and translated to English. The least I’d expect would be to allocate the proper name and what it means in English. H.d.l. 06:58, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Many words about the Drake attack but, what about the Verno´s attack to Cartagena de Indias, the bigger disaster of the British navy in its history...the british people dont remenber it?

Yo can remember it in: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitio_de_Cartagena_de_Indias

Beauty Queens Cartagena has it's own beauty queen--it's a tourist district, isn't it?

[edit] economy and tourism

the article lacks an outline of the economy and also the importance of his tourist industry and industrialization in the past years. Im doing some research, if you would like to help me your welcome to do so.--Don Quijote's Sancho 02:52, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cartagena has a sister city

I think its Mayaguez, Puerto Rico

Coral Gables, Florida is another sister city of Cartegena. The city has a Cartagena Plaza (Cartagena Circle) with one of the shoes in the middle as a symbol of the sisterhood.
