Well, since its foundation Barranquilla has been a city far ahead from the others when it comes to development in Colombia. Basically because everything started there, the first seaport, the first airport, even the first 5 stars hotel in the country and so many other firsts here thanks to its location. For that very same reason you see a lot of different people when it comes to races/mixed races, there were italian, german, libanese, Chinese people who moved there during the good times that the city had in the past, and of course we had black people and native indigenous too. It’s true that the city was kind of stuck in time for around 40 years, but it is now back on track. As for the tourism, you’re right. Historically It has not been a place for that purpose, it has always been a business hub city, but I don’t think it’s reeeeally hidden hahaha, we host the second biggest carnival in the world and musically we’re very well known because of the cumbia which was born there and artists like Shakira, El Joe Arroyo and other vallenato singers. Additionally, not English friendly isn’t accurate, it’s the Colombian city with the highest levels of bilingualism. Aside from that, I really enjoyed your video and I’m glad you liked your stay in Barranquilla. 🫶🏻🤟🏻

Hello Wes, I’m from Medellín, and I really love my city. I believe it has great things, and that’s why it is very appealing to tourists nowadays. However, I also feel very pleased when tourists discover that Colombia is not only the classical Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, and Cartagena. Barranquilla, as you have seen, is a very underrated city that has seen great development in the very last years, just like Manizales. And just like those cities, there are more that are following the same steps. Wes, I would personally recommend you to visit cities like Bucaramanga in the east, and Pasto in the west when you have the time. You will also be impressed because those cities seem to be following the same steps as Barranquilla. And I think it was about time for tourists to discover that Colombia has a lot to offer in terms of emerging cities.

Wes, you hit a Home Run with your analysis of Barranquilla. My wife and her Family are from Barranquilla (married 15 years ago) and they say this summer the heat is definetly hotter. Also the Streets have been a little bit more worrisome and attributed supposedly to current President. Strong Middle Eastern presence surely adds to the delicious food in the Golden Door city. I am from Boston, so add Edgar Renteria of Sul de Barranquilla who was Boston Red Sox shortstop for short spell but had a long successful career. He was the driving force to build the new baseball stadium 5 years ago.

First time I went to Barranquilla was around 2010/11. Pass by last year while headed to Santa Marta and the city has developed a lot since my first time especially as a Port City and with the free trade with the USA that when it really started to develop. Just to add the Caribbean Coast of Colombia they love to play Baseball. Barranquilla & the rest of Caribbean parts of Colombia has similar culture to the rest of the Caribbean Islands.

Once you leave Medellin and visit the other cities you start to realize how overrated medellin is. I get it, overall it is still the most liveable, but with how little tourists other places get you'd think it would be above and beyond better and it really isn't IMO. For my tastes it is too touristy.

Great insight Wes. So many true statements that I’ve heard directly from Barranquilleros here in Miami. They are usually super laid back and chill people like most costeños. I love the parallel you drew between Barranquilla and Panama City too. I spent every summer from Kindergarten until senior year in Panama with family and it’s crazy to see how both cities have developed in the last 30 years. Been thinking about going to do some remote working from Barranquilla as the north side is modern, affordable and not touristy. Seems like a better place to stay focused. For work and for families, as you said.

There are so many other great places in Colombia do waste you time here unless you have a specific reason to be there.

Para conocer Barranquilla tienes que abrir tu mente, pues esta no es una ciudad para el turista remilgado, teniendo en cuenta los contrastes propios de una capital que como pocas en Colombia no fue fundada por conquistadores o proceres, es una de las ciudades más nuevas del país, y la gente la visita para buscar oportunidades de trabajo o de negocios, pues tiene mucho comercio, apuntala su industria y es cero xenofobica, por tanto lo que más consolida su tradición es la convivencia y la no discriminación. Al margen de la inseguridad actual o emergente en toda Colombia, Barranquilla es una ciudad para disfrutar desde la amistad y la contemplación serena de la vida y la inclusión, el no complicarse con absurdos esnobismos y entender que la cultura se vive por el talento e ingenio propio de sus habitantes siempre abiertos a disfrutar plenamente de la vida, no en vano es una tierra que vio nacer o adopto a grandes artistas, intelectuales, deportistas, empresarios, que se inspiraron en su cotidianidad para crear y consagrarse. Aqui nacio Shakira, Sofia Vergara, Edgar Rentería, entre otros, y se encariñaron los samarios Carlos Vives y el Pibe Valderrama que aman mucho esta ciudad, igual que en vida lo hizo Gabriel Garcia Marquez, quien comparo el caracter de la ciudad con los cantos de las sirenas, es la ciudad del "dejar hacer y el dejar pasar", es la ciudad que celebra la vida por eso su carnaval, sus fines de semana y la camaradería ... Creo que de esas vainas no entiendes. Aqui no se disfruta de lugares o monumentos, aqui se disfruta de la gente y de la vida.

@@36indiancreek Thanks for your reply and maybe I should have looked at your city with more of an open mind. Barranquilla reminds me a lot of the city I live in the United States, big, lots of concrete, very hot and humid, and a lot of economic opportunity which draws people from many other places just for work. I have travelled all over Colombia and just prefer nature over cities. I was in the amazon in June and the Sierra Nevada before and there are few places on earth as beautiful so you can understand how Barranquilla or any other city for that matter does not compare. IN my country when people ask "How do you like Colombia?" I always respond, "The Colombians are the most polite and educated people of Latin America."

Luckily this is also the best time to visit the city from a cultural/touristic perspective because of the four festivities: 1) Día de las velitas 2) Christmas 3) New year's eve and 4) Carnival... that really goes from the 1st of January to Ash Wednesday.

Dude, if you are living in that country, in Villavicencio you will be alright. I invite you to give it a shot. Villavicencio is a beautiful, prosperous city of Los Llanos.

Villavicencio is fine, great weather, beautiful sunsets and no bugs. The city is clean with decent traffic. Only downtown is kinda sketchy. But I wondered what would I do on weekends other than hanging out at the primavera urbana Mall. Many places also only open at night.

Wes, praying for you and your well-being. The death threats were extremely out of order and left you with little option. I say the following with the utmost love and understanding: No one is without shortcomings however, everything you mentioned about your ex-wife is actually standard operating procedure in a devout Christian wife. You clearly didn't understand the full breadth of the faith. Telling your wife that you don't want to go to church some Sundays is akin to blasphemy. The Bible actually advises us to seek counsel from the elders in the congregation. That's standard too. As a husband devout in the faith, you by your own conviction would never want to go to bars or clubs. A model Christian wife would never have to compromise any time in worship because her husband would be right there with her anyways. As devout Christians, we really don't have close friendships or hang out much with people of the world. That's standard as well. While you're at home, waiting for wife to come back, you would be preparing the Bible study that you would share with your wife. Obeying God supersedes anything your spouse asks that is in opposition to God's commands. All the best Wes.

There's no ciclovia. Rarely do you see anyone ever bike or any outdoor activities due to the heat. It's summer everyday. On average, locals tends to be more overweight compared to other cities in Colombia. Fitness and biking is not really a huge thing here. The city has a problem with severe flooding during the rainy seasons. Streets are in constant repairs. Other than that, the costenos foods, Aguila, baseball games, the Carnival... welcome to Barranquilla.
