Famous Places in Colombia For Your Holiday
Travel tips for your trip to Colombia Hotel Maps Famous Places in Colombia helps you to make your trip to Colombia in the holiday a Splendid One
If you're either looking for options for a Colombia vacation or are trying to decide where to go for a Latin America vacation, you'll be delighted with your decision to visit Medellin.
However, Medellin is a Colombia destination that is commonly know for a lack of tourist things to do, so why should you visit? For the lack of tourists, of course! For an opportunity to get to know a Colombian city that isn't over-run by sightseers and where you can get a genuine feel for the country and its population, Medellin is a great option.
You'll have a great few days in the city, which could include any of the following activities:
Watching a world record-sized flower parade
Medellin is known with its temperate climate as the City of Eternal Spring, making any time of year good for a visit. However, you can see the best of Medellin in early August, when the Festival of the Flowers (Fería de las Flores) is scheduled; a series of parades, concerts, speeches, craft sales and impromptu parties.
Rock climbing the easy (or hard) way at El Penol
A two-hour drive from Medellin is the imposing free-standing rock of El Penol. A breathless climb up some steep steps carved into the giant stone face will take you to the top, presenting some spectacular views. More adventurous types can arrange for the equipment to attempt a rock-climb.
Get a dose of internationally-renowned art
An internationally-known sculptor from Medellin, Fernando Botero is famous for his over-sized human figures. Visitors to Plaza Botero can see and interact with his sculptures, as well as seeing other works in the more formal setting of Museo de Antioquia.
Get to know the world's biggest drug dealer
If you don't know who Pablo Escobar is, then you probably aren't aware that people sell illegal drugs for money. Tour operators give visitors an opportunity to get to know the hometown of the infamous Colombian, who was killed in a shootout with police in 1992. The tour will include a visit to Escobar's grave at the local cemetery, passing by the former headquarters of his cartel (now ironically a drug rehab unit), the roof where he was shot and the collection of private planes that still litter the local airport, part of his $20 billion legacy that was eventually seized by the Colombia government.
Taking to the skies
If seeing Medellin and the surrounding area at street level just isn't your thing, then tour operators offer the opportunity for paragliding flights. Those without the necessary know-how to pull strings and ride thermals can take a tandem flight, sitting back and enjoying the view while their pilot does the hard work.
A city with an interesting mix of culture, history and influences, Medellin will be the destination to give you an insight into a real working city on your Colombia vacation.

Travel tips for your trip to Colombia Hotel Maps Famous Places in Colombia helps you to make your trip to Colombia in the holiday a Splendid One
Knowledge in any means is helpful to expand your horizons. Reading books on literature, science and technology etc is not the only way to learn something. Traveling is something which not only provides knowledge but also gifts us with a package of experience and adventure. While most of us love to travel with a herd of great pals, traveling alone can be a lot of fun too and can in fact turn into life’s biggest adventure. Time is like an alcoholic spirit which vanishes with the flick of an eye. Today’s fast life is like a punishment for the youth and is increasing the stress. Hibernation of self is very necessary to relieve ourselves from the hectic life. Traveling alone helps one to understand oneself and discover new thoughts. It gives a sense of responsibility, self-reliance and independence. One can also know their likes and dislikes and the way they react in a particular situation. Visiting an unfamiliar place on your own allows you to know yourself better. This is the perfect time to rekindle with the most loyal company you could ever have in your lifetime – your own self.
One of the best places to explore today is Bogota. Bogota is the capital of Colombia and is famous for its picturesque architecture and unique culture. It is the largest city in Colombia with an altitude of 2,640 meters making it the third-highest major city in the world. It is also said that Bogota is about 8,500 feet closer to the stars. It is most famous for its magnificent Andean views and wonderful spring-like weather. Traveling on your own to Bogota can open up an adventure that you could only imagine.
Hop on to your Bogota-bound plane and make sure you do all of these!
1. Explore the Sabana – Take out time to go far away from the regular city life. For people who love to take risk can go for an adventurous trip near Suesca. It is a paradise for rock climbers. You can experience rock climbing, river rafting and hiking with an additional package of beautiful views.
2. Get a plastic surgery – Travel alone and surprise your friends back home with a sexier and beautiful you. Medical tourism is one of Bogota’s biggest prides. In fact, Bogota is among the world’s top three leading countries offering world-class cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgery in Colombia will cost only around 25% of what the developed nations charge. There is no compromise on the quality of the treatment. The patients are provided high quality service with world-class medical facility. A $32,000 Brazilian butt augmentation in the United States can only cost you $5,000 in Bogota. This is due to the low cost of labor. The patients are treated by highly qualified professional doctors and therefore the risk factor attached to the low cost is also diminished. And when we are talking about the plastic surgery in Bogota, a medical tourism company that needs mention is Cosmetic Harmony. Cosmetic Harmony specializes in complete cosmetic surgery packages, including cosmetic procedures, travel, accommodations, transportation to medical appointments, a bilingual personal assistant and medications.Cosmetic Harmony uses only FDA-approved materials.
3.Swing your hips at Salseando – It is an excellent place to rock the night. It is a mix of hot rhythms and the local culture. Being alone gives you the freedom to meet new friends. Also get a taste at hot spots like Bodeguita del Centro or Son Salome.
4. Avoid the rush – Transmilenio is the first mass transit in the world to be considered a clean diesel system, as defined by the Kyoto Protocol. Taking this transport will save you from the traffic jams. It also gives you a great view of the Mueso del Oro and Parque Virrey.
5. Toma chocolate – Of course, a trip is incomplete without tasting the local delicacy. Bogota takes pride of its chocolate santafereno. It tastes best with pan de yuccas also known as yucca bread, cheese bread and tamales. The two best authentic places are La Florida and La Puerta Falsa.
6. Shopping freaks – Zona Rosa is the favorite hangout for expensive shopping. If you’re looking for some memorabilia to take back home this would be the best place to shop. You can also have excellent cuisines at any restaurant in the Zona .

Short History Of Colombia and Culture
Travel tips for your trip to Colombia Hotel Maps Famous Places in Colombia helps you to make your trip to Colombia in the holiday a Splendid One
Prior to the arrival of the Spanish, the territory that is now Colombia was inhabited by the highly developed and sophisticated Chibca Indians.
Spanish occupation began in the 17th century; it was consolidated in the viceroyalty of New Granada, which covered the northern part of South America, during the early 18th century.
Discontent among various parts of the population - indigenous inhabitants, lower-class Spanish immigrants and mixed-race Creoles - with the arbitrary nature of colonial rule, eventually led to the 1819 rebellion under the legendary figure of Simon Bolivar.
New Granada became Gran Colombia, divided into four provinces (roughly equivalent to the four present-day countries of Colombia, Panama, Ecuador and Venezuela). Colombia separated from the others soon after Bolivar's death in 1830.
The Republic of Colombia was formally established in 1855, four years after the abolition of slavery. Over the next 100 years, Colombian politics were dominated by the Conservative-Liberal feud, which often broke out into warfare.
There were occasions, however, when the two parties were able to unite to see off a common threat. This occurred in 1970, when they joined forces to prevent a bid for power by the Alianza Nacional Popular (ANAPO), led by former dictator, General Rojas.
Disaffected members of ANAPO then formed a guerrilla movement known as Movimiento 19 de Abril (M-19), initiating a 15-year-long guerrilla campaign against the government.
They were joined by two other left-wing groups, Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC, Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces) and the Ejercito de Liberacion Nacional (ELN, National Liberation Army).
The 1980s saw drug traffickers become a potent force in Colombia: large sums of money turned into political power, and leading politicians increasingly became tainted by their connections with drug money. Successive American governments, having marked Colombia down as the principal source of drugs flowing into the USA, put increasing pressure on the Colombians to prosecute the 'war on drugs'.
In 2000, the US Clinton administration unveiled 'Plan Colombia', a massive military support programme, valued at US$1 billion, for the Colombian armed forces.
