Casa de amarillo 2 Photo

Photographer’s Note

Who could resist taking photos of these colourful colonial buildings? This was taken in Cartagena de indias in Colombia. These buildnigs can be found inside the walled city. Makes a pleasant stroll. Just makes sure you got more time than intended as you would get lost, sometimes literally!

Some facts of interest:
Cartagena's colonial walled city and fortress were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980 along with Lima.
It's the fifth largest city in Colombia.
With population of 1,240,000 in its Metropolitan Area, and 1,090,000 in the city.

Hello Natasha,
ususaly I don't like so close-up pictures of a buildings, but this one is classical, and beside this show us many details of the colombian colonial architecture. So I like it:)
Regards, Silvia

Hi Natasha,

I think this photo is way underrated. Composition is excellent and so are the colors - lively and rich. Thanks for sharing
