Audio Guide of Trap Street

As it is a public street and part of the city's historic urban heritage, it is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can freely access it on foot from Honda's colonial center without any prior reservation.

The visit is completely free, since it is an iconic street within Honda's public space. It is a must-see stop that offers tremendous cultural value at no cost to your wallet.

The walk is short and generally takes between 20 and 30 minutes to enjoy at a relaxed pace. However, if you enjoy architectural photography, you may want to spend a little more time capturing its unique angles and colonial balconies.

Its design was not accidental; it was built this way for military and topographical reasons, to obstruct the view and slow the advance of pirates or invaders, making ambushes easier. It is a jewel of colonial engineering that tells the defensive history of the port on the Magdalena River.

Honda is known for its high temperatures, so we recommend going very early in the morning or at sunset to avoid the strongest sun. In addition, the golden afternoon light beautifully highlights the texture of the cobblestones and old facades.

You should use caution, as the ground retains its original colonial cobblestones and the street has steep slopes. This makes access by wheelchair or with baby strollers difficult and not advisable without assistance.

You are in the historic heart of the city; just a few steps away you will find the famous Honda Market Square and the impressive Navarro Bridge. We also suggest visiting the Magdalena River Museum to better understand the context of the city.

Wear light clothing, flat and comfortable shoes (avoid heels because of the stones), and bring plenty of water. To enjoy the full experience and understand every legend, we suggest downloading an immersive audio guide at IAudioguia.com before your visit.
