Super nice and warm people. Good food around the park and great service. Keep your eyes wide open for thieves despite of cops around d the park.
If you fellow foreigner are looking to pass by and give it a visit to this place follow these steps and you will be OK:
1-Dont give papaya = dont show your expensive & luxury rings, cellphone, camera, chains etc just dont spoil yourself by having expensivr stuff.
2-Night time in downtown NEVER ALONE AND NOT EVEN recommended if you going with a group of friends. Since you dont knoe the surroundings dont EVEN TRY IT PLEASE.
3-morning time, mid day time and afternoon time til 4:00pm is ok to go. But past by 5:00pm dont be there due *hora pico = congestion time*
4-know where are you going and then keep going on. Dont act like u dont know where u going cuz robbers will take that as an chance to steal your stuff.
5-bring always Colombian bills of low denomination = go with 4 bills of 10,000 cop
I wanted to see el tranvía de Ayacucho a must see. It was amazing seen Medellín from a different angle
A lot of people gather around this park to share a moment with the Paisa culture, a lot of little shops, bars, restaurants, the metro system within walking distance.. an old place with an ancient church.
Good place to get robbed. Stay away after 8pm. Street people everywhere
Punto de referencia en el pleno centro de Medellín. Mucho por mejorar en limpieza, seguridad y orden del sitio. Hay un proyecto llamado Paseo Bolivar que busca mejorar el centro de la ciudad en esos aspectos, hay que estar pendientes si realmente produce un cambio real en este sector.
Clean, lots of police wandering about to keep you safe, cool art sculptures, metro station, and at one of the best and groovy shopping areas in the city (El Hueco).
Very cool place to pass by at night in the week-end. Locals are playing typical music and dancing :-)
Fascinating Parque in Medellin, Colombia. Thousands of people milling about. Vendors selling everything from fake Rolex watches, baseball caps, cellphone calls, to fresh cut fruit, and more. Crazy!
So totally electric and fun great place for people watching. Love love love Colombia because of place like this.
If you need a hat, this is the place to come. People watching heaven.
It's a historical place in Medellin. However it's usually crowded. I recommend to stop in the metro and go to the candelaria church which is in the Plaza and keep walking to the Botero Sculpture Plaza.
