| Abstract | The cultural legacy of Cartagena de Indias (Colombia) is formed by an important defen-sive cultural heritage, integrated by strongholds, bulwarks, curtains, and batteries, locat-ed in the historic center and in its bay. Theses fortifications account for up to 44% of the cultural heritage protected by the Ministry of Cultural of Colombia in the city, and all of them, have been included and recognized as a World Heritage Site (UNESCO, 1984). However, although they have all been inventoried as tourist attractions, their role in the city’s cultural tourism is variable. The present article analyses this heritage, by means of its current tourism valuation and functionality. For this, information from different sources has been studied, which has been systematized through variables, verified later by means of direct observation. In this way, it has been possible to determine the situa-tion of the attractions within the cultural tourism of Cartagena de Indias, being able to establish conclusions. |
