The Candies Portal - Cartagena de Indias
On the
Carriages place,
we find the famous Candies Portal. This portal, that has a
spectacular vu on the Public Clock, hasn’t
always been named like this, because at the colonial time,
it was named the Portal of the Judge and when they decided
to sell the slaves, then this portal received the name
Portal of the Slaves. At the end of the XIX century, the
mayor decided that this site was the one of the carriages
that could park in front of the Portal de los Dulces.
