    Worth Visiting
    This mall is worth the visit. It is built around an old bull fighting arena. The tiered seats are there and they use it as an entertainment venue. There are some nice stores in the mall and a really good food court. We were easily able to walk to the mall from our walled city hotel.

    Love this mall!
    🎑 8/10: Great shopping mall with plenty of shopping options, from clothing to perfume, daily essentials, they have everything! I loved their modern design! But in general things are quite expensive and pricey here! 📍8/10: Everything here is so clean and nice! I loved the decorations, designs, and the cleanliness! I feel really comfortable using the Jacuzzi, sauna and the shower, which is not usually the case! I can tell they put much effort and heart into making this place looks nice and providing the best experience for their customers!

The design is beautiful and taking into account that much of the original structure of Plaza de Todos was preserved, the route is very fluid. On the upper floor is El Tentadero, made up of several restaurants that offer various menus from Mexican food, sushi, pasta, meats, waffles and a bar.
If you go shopping it is somewhat expensive since there are exclusive brands such as Carolin Herrera and Malva.

The beautiful luxury shopping mall “Plaza La Serrezuela”, located right in the heart of Cartagena, opened in 2019, is housed in an imposing building and takes us back to an important era in Colombian history, has 22.4 thousand m² of built area and In addition to a luxurious shopping center, with a mix of luxury made up of national and international brands, in total, there are 101 stores and 15 kiosks, a cultural and convention center, as well as a large gastronomic space, with bars and restaurants of Lux.
The name and architectural building pay homage to the roots of the project, “La Serrezuela convivial square”, built and inaugurated in 1893 by the brothers Carlos and Fernando Vélez Daníes and which was completely destroyed during the War of a Thousand Days, which led to the brothers Daníes for a second project in the same place, when they inaugurated a bullfighting arena, inspired by the constructions of the Maestranza square, in Seville, and the Alhambra palace, both in Spain.
In 1930, the place gained new meaning when it was converted into a circus-theater by Fernando Vélez Pombo when it gained a new built area, this time in masonry, to house a stage and a cinematic screen and the place then became a meeting point. for the Cartagenas and it was where music and cultural festivals took place, as well as typical Colombian festivities”, and was even the stage for the Caribbean Music Festival.
The amphitheater, the heart of the shopping mall, was cataloged as the largest building entirely made of wood in Colombia and can accommodate up to 1,200 people. Furthermore, the space can be adapted for corporate events, weddings, launches, parades and has the support of more four convention rooms for up to 450 people, an innovative concept for a shopping center.
The architecture also provided for thermal comfort, as the city of Cartagena is known for its high temperatures and has a 42 meter diameter roof with a bioclimatic design that allows the galleries and circulation areas to be kept cool regardless of the temperature outside. and also has a retractable central opening”, in addition to other Luggage Keep services, where visitors can safely store their belongings while strolling or waiting for check-in at the hotel or airport and Drop&Go, which guarantees the delivery of shopping at the chosen address and there is also the fountain water show, which has become a great attraction for the local population and for everyone who visits the shopping center.

Excellent option for shopping. The top level is has a great dining area with various restaurants. This mall was converted from an old bull fighting arena and it's interesting to see how they've built around it. Makes for a great dining experience.

What was once a bullfighting arena transformed into an ultramodern shopping mall with excellent taste in its layout, lighting and venues. The top floor has a wide selection of first- rate restaurants with a stunning view of the city. In a way, Cartagena, the colonial tourist attraction has suddenly caught up with our contemporary world at its best.

This mall is near the wall in the San Diego area, and it was build around a former bull fighting arena. It's beautiful, with high end shops, restaurants, and nice public areas. Be sure to go outside on the upper floors to see the views of the city.

If you are in need of an AC shopping fix, this is the place to go. Lots of trendy shops and a couple of some bargains if you know your prices. There is an extensive food court type set up, but with all the marvelous restaurants in Cartagena, do you really want to eat in a mall?

Shopping center located within the historic city, its infrastructure revolves around the square that was formerly to deal with bulls. Today the best brands are there. Very organized and on the last level several restaurants like Creps & Wafles. We had lunch there. Very pleasant time.

Definitely worth a visit if you're in Cartagena. This is the high-end shopping mall, but even if you're not shopping its a cool building to see and unlike anything else nearby. There's quite a few floors (I can't remember how many), but the top floor is full of restaurants with lots of different choices - I had really great pizza up there. There's tons of taxis outside waiting to shuttle you as well. I stayed til the mall closed and was worried about transportation but the taxis were buzzing all about.
