When I lived in Medellin I did nearly all my shopping at the Exito in Envigado. I've been to Cartagena about 6 times and need to know where there is a large hypermarket (previously I have been directed to Olympia but it only has food). I don't want to shop for handicrafts etc I need shoes, sandals, curtains, toys, cushions etc. Is there not a large shopping mall anywhere? Also, where should we go to buy fresh fish?
