The grand promenade down the main street

What a gorgeous way to be introduced to the Old Town! Within minutes of dfter disembarking, we walked down a beautiful pedestrian path (set with blue tiles down the center) which led to the most majestic building as its focal point: The Ministry of Agriculture and Environment. It is a show-stopper. From this main street, several small narrow Old Town lanes issue forth. Lots of fun opportunities to follow one's nose and poke about a bit. This is the main street in Cartagena and it is the main retail district. The "calle" is lined with elegant Modernistic buildings and everything looked so clean and well-cared for.

Everything you may want to see or buy
Calle Mayor is only a 10 to 15 minute walk from the cruise ship terminal. This street has shops and restaurants galore and also has many sights that are truly worth seeing. The Catholic Church “Iglesia Santo Domingo” is a bit hard to find, but we’ll worth a visit! The address is Calle Mayor, 28, 30201 Cartagena, Murcia, Spain. Locals can point you in the right direction. Highly recommend.

Lovely architecture
I enjoyed walking the busy Calle Mayor, a street that links the Plaza de San Sebastian in the north with Cartagena’s town hall. The street is a “ravine-like pedestrian street paved with distinctive blue marble tiles” that runs from the cruise port past the Roman Theater and the Church of Santa Domingo. It is a typical Spanish “Paseo” where friends, families and couples take strolls together to enjoy their free time and it is where we began our walk.
