The spokesman for the orange formation, Manuel Padín, believes that "no municipal government to date has been able to take full advantage of this place, one of the few green lungs of the city, and located in a privileged place of our geography, Visitor to listen to the millennial heritage conversation of all the cultures that have passed through Cartagena "
Citizens Cartagena will claim to the local government a plan to improve Torres Park that integrates joint actions to take advantage of all its possibilities as a tourist attraction and green space associated with cultural, ecological and sports activities.
Citizen spokesman in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, believes that "no municipal government has so far been able to take advantage of one of the few green lungs of the city, located in a privileged place of our geography, since it allows the visitor to hear the Heritage conversation of all the cultures that have been in Cartagena for thousands of years. "
For Manuel Padín, no one can deny that this place is one of our most important tourist resources of Cartagena, "what other space can bring together views of the Port, the Roman Theater, the city, the Arsenal, with this kind of vegetation and the Animals you have "asks the local Citizens spokesperson.
The spokesman for the orange formation explained that its Municipal Group has as one of its strategic objectives, the revalorization of the most emblematic areas of Cartagena, "we are beginning to see the results of our pressure in the vicinity of the Plaza de la Merced, Which now seems to have a future, and it's time to look at Torres Park and propose measures to exploit its charms. "
Among the necessary actions, the Citizens' spokesperson has indicated to re-think the accesses to facilitate the visits to the elderly, the disabled, and the families that bring to their children, "the steep ramps, the absence of parking, and the difficulty to Access by car are barriers that dissuade many potential visitors and Citizens believe that there are ways to overcome them and do not require a million dollar investment. "
On the other hand, Manuel Padín, considers that the publicly owned restaurant should be removed as soon as possible, "it is unthinkable that once you go up here, you do not have a place to drink anything, the absence of toilets, And even night lighting, are other reasons why despite its beauty, this park is still not a sufficiently attractive offer.
Padín asks the City Council to understand that an integral improvement plan such as the one that proposes its formation is to promote a new source of economic resources, "only through the concession of the restoration service we are already ensuring interesting income."
"On the price of the tourist lift, two euros per person, should be lowered through family bonds, and even consider gratuitous," added the spokesman.
The lack of activities that invite you to go up, strengthen the interpretation center, promote the area through ambitious communication campaigns, are other measures that citizens will raise the local government of Cartagena, so that beauty, Cultural and historical importance of this enclave, have the corresponding and deserved response of the Cartagena and tourists.
