The Puerto Colombia Light, also known as The Window of Dreams is a lighthouse and monument located in Puerto Colombia, Atlántico Department, Colombia. Its construction began in
March 2023 in a roundabout near Miramar beach, and
was inaugurated within the year, on December 18. Besides being a navigational aid for ships cruising along the Caribbean coast between the nearby port of Barranquilla and Cartagena, it is also a monument dedicated to the many immigrants who entered the country through the port of Puerto Colombia and brought to the country knowledge and technological advances. This is a town that was founded in the mid-1800s and flourished with that important commercial activity until the 1940s, when a new port was built closer to Barranquilla and that of Puerto Colombia was abandoned.
