Minigolf gjennom byen Santa Marta: 9 hull, par 31

Santa Marta er bakteppet for denne runden, der ballen ruller over de faktiske gatene i byen. Hullene er bygget av ekte severdigheter, og ender ved Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino. Denne raske 9-hulls runden dekker 6,8 km med en par på 31. Skip er en lokal guide som kjenner hver kantstein og brostein, selv om noen smuler av og til distraherer utsikten.

Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino

The Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino is an hacienda, also known as a quinta, that was built in 1608. Today, it is a museum located in the corregimiento of Mamatoco within the tourist district of Santa Marta. This site is a significant stop for any visitor because it is where Simón Bolívar died on December 17, 1830. Because of its history and preservation, the property is part of the National Monuments of Colombia. I always find the layout of these old estates fascinating to look at from above. You can see how the grounds were designed for both production and residence long before the city grew around it. It is a place where the architecture tells a story of an older era in Colombia.
