👍 Beautiful architecture that beautifies the center of Barranquilla. Too bad that sometimes it looks a bit neglected outside and around. This church is one of the most beautiful in the city, in my opinion, it is a must-see destination if you are visiting Barranquilla.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful architecture that beautifies the center of Barranquilla. Too bad that sometimes it looks a bit neglected outside and around.

(Original) Hermosa arquitectura que embellece el centro de barranquilla. Lastima que a veces luzca un poco descuidada por fuera y en sus alrededores. Esta iglesia es de las más bonitas que hay en la ciudad, según mi opinión, es un destino infaltable si estas de visita por barranquilla.

    (Translated by Google) One of the most emblematic squares in Barranquilla with its church and its republican and modern style buildings that surround it. Full of commerce. (Original) Uno de las plazas más emblemáticas de Barranquilla con su iglesia y sus construcciones de estilo republicano y moderno que la rodean . Llena de comercio .

    (Translated by Google) Throughout our growth as a city the church of San Nicolás has undergone several changes in its infrastructure, but do not take me badly, this has markedly improved the place, public spaces have been recovered, the imposing church with its beautiful color te dazzles, the change of environment is felt, there is still talk about it being a somewhat insecure space for such I recommend being accompanied. (Original) A lo largo de nuestro crecimiento como ciudad la iglesia de San Nicolás ha sufrido varios cambios en su infraestructura, pero no me tomen a mal, esto ha mejorado notoriamente el lugar, se han recuperado los espacios públicos, la imponente iglesia con su hermoso color te deslumbra, se siente el cambio de ambiente, se habla aún de que es un espacio algo inseguro por tal recomiendo ir acompañado.

    Kids love it, however it's for a particular age bracket. Kids that are too young will only be able to participate in 3 or 4 areas. Older kids will enjoy everything. There are height and age limits on certain things like getting an official ID, a driver's license and some places are age limited. Some activities also require kids to be able to read, which disappoints younger ones. All in all there are plenty of things to do for kids. Adults might enjoy it with younger kids, when they can participate, but for a certain age group it'll be a long time sitting down while your kid goes crazy all over the place. Kids over 12 can stay by themselves (they'll only be released to their parents or guardian).
