El barrio Nogales is good for walking around.

Los nogales is a maze! Very easy to get lost up there! Back in the day, people used to live up there as it was easy to lose and evade the police! El prado is nice but B`quilla is not really a walker friendly city.........i like to get down to centro now and then.....the markets are a good place to do your shopping early in the morning......but I usually don`t go alone

I've got a place in Chiquinquira, very friendly....but probably not the best place for a stroll. For that matter, BQ really isn't set up for easy walking. El Centro is kinda cool, but as mentioned above, I wouldn't go alone.

I wish I could tell you to take a walk around south curramba, el barrio santuario, la Victoria, Los Andes, La chinita, el Boston, el barrio abajo etc. to get a feel of true barranquilla, but I cant’
Two blocks into your walk if you have not busted your leg on the sidewalk or have dirty dogs chase your ass down the street, then the only thing you’ll be wearing is your underwear, and if they don’t look so dirty, that too will be gone.
Exactly what do you wanna see, churches, museum etc. I’ve never been to a church or museum in Barranquilla. I’m not sure we have a fokin museum.
Now if I you like drinking beer dancing, valleanto and chicharron then we got PLENTY of that chit down here.
As for girls, your best bet is up north and with cachacas.

I'll get there, when I get there!

But usually I'm on rollerskates when I'm in Murillo. Nobody has time to strip me, not even the chicas.

Any other good neighborhoods?
