Why is it important?
The city of Honda became one of the most important economic and military strongholds of the Kingdom of New Granada. The adaptation of architecture and infrastructure to the natural environment represents a milestone in historical urban studies
Perspectives
It is linked to the construction of knowledge on the historic urban landscape, the impact on the river ecosystem, loss of artisanal fishing, the appropriation of tangible and intangible cultural heritage and the cultural route of the Rio Grande de la Magdalena, which is of world interest
