Have you been to Medellín, Colombia? This vibrant cultural hub has an amazing foodie scene, super friendly people, and nature & trees throughout making it one of the greenest cities in Colombia.

Must-see attractions in Guatapé: 1. 🪨 Rock of Guatapé (Piedra del Peñón): A 200-meter-tall monolith with stunning views. Hike to the top by climbing over 700 steps for breathtaking views. 2. Guatapé Lake (Lago Guatapé): Enjoy boat tours, kayaking, paddleboarding, or relax at the lake’s edge. 3. 🏡 Colorful Town Center (Zona Rosa): Admire the vibrant houses, shops, and street art. Explore the town’s stone cobbled streets, unique shops, and cafes. 4. 🚃 Take an adorable, tiny moto chiva around town. 5.🦙 🐐 🫏 stop at @elaltodelchocho to pet llamas, donkeys, horses & goats 6. 🍫 take a chocolate workshop at @cuscun_chocolombia I stayed at the glamping hotel @bosko_guatape and it has the cutest dome rooms with jacuzzi and views of the lake. Such a fun trip! I can’t wait to go back for the Festival of Flowers in August.
