Beiyu
Beiyu runs a rooftop lounge concept in Getsemaní that balances cocktails, food, and views of the walled city. The décor blends tropical greenery with modern furniture, creating a space that photographs well and feels comfortable. The cocktail menu mixes Colombian ingredients with Asian-inspired touches (the name is a nod to Mandarin). DJs play on weekend evenings, keeping the energy elevated without drowning out conversation. The food menu covers shareable plates that lean fusion. It's a newer addition to Getsemaní's scene and attracts a crowd that skews slightly older and better dressed than the neighborhood's average.
What to Expect
A polished rooftop lounge with Colombian-Asian fusion drinks and city views. More refined than Getsemaní's typical bar scene, but not as formally structured as Centro Histórico's cocktail bars. Good for a stylish evening drink.
Tropical rooftop with a fusion twist. Getsemaní's polished edge.
Lounge and tropical house from DJs on weekends. Background music weekdays.
Smart casual. The crowd dresses up slightly for the setting.
Couples and small groups wanting a rooftop experience in Getsemaní.

Insider Tip
Sunset timing is key. The view of the city changes dramatically in golden hour. The Asian-Colombian fusion cocktails are the most interesting options on the menu. Weekend DJ nights are busier.
Other Venues in Getsemani
Café Havana
Legendary live salsa institution and a Cartagena pilgrimage site. Cuban-style son and salsa bands play nightly. Expect a line on weekends and a cover around 20,000 COP.
Demente
Graffiti-covered bar with cheap cocktails and a backpacker-heavy crowd. Good early-evening spot for drinks around Plaza de la Trinidad before heading elsewhere.
