This was the first settlement in the Aburra Valley on March 2 1616 by Spanish conqueror Don Francisco Herrera Campuzano. The first name was San Lorenzo de Aburrá.
Nice place if you want to have some beers with your friends, there are many places around this park, you can have some food also.
Beautiful park. We felt very safe, since the police were always around. There is a small market, a beautiful church and restaurants nearby.
This is another nice little park in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city. It is a good place to sit and rest in the shade for a couple of minutes. There are a number of restaurants, bars, and discos in the area. A number of tours also pick up here. Including the Guatape Tours.
Very nice place. A park to rest from the sun or party at night. Great location, discos and bars all very close and easy to get to. Not a place I would advise to park, but a great place for both day and night activities.
This is the place where MedellÃn was founded so it has historical value. Is place to chill out near Lleras park, La presidenta Park. From here you can take tours to several places.
Pure Colombia. It used to be the best place in Medellin to enjoy Colombian youth culture before the new restrictive laws were enacted.
Very nice place with lots of young people in the cultural center of Medellin. Safe and allmost European
It's quiet, has free wi-fi, trees and many shops in the surroundings
its a landmark of Medellin, just a few blocks away from the real action at "parque lleras". You can find nearby "Parque el Poblado" some restaurants, alternative pubs for metal heads and some cool underground music also a few pool tables around and in general it's a great place to just chill and have a nice conversation or just wonder around the small street market that its usually located in the upper part of the park if you come from the south. Enjoy your stay at the Wonderful Medellin! 😊
This used to be the best spot to hang out in Medellin, but now the police have banned drinking in public so it is just a small public park. On football game days, however, this is still the spot to be.
It's a great place to chill out. You can also take buses to pretty much everywhere
The main reason why this place are important it's because Medellin are founded just here a long time ago. Near here you can find a group of cheap restaurants with good eat proposal. There you can find at night the chance to drink cheap beer, and dance salsa until 4am, or enjoy a little alternative theater called Acción Impro.
Used to be great now there's no nightlife. Since they banned drinking in public spaces this place lost all of its charm which was basically getting wasted out in the open. Without the booze filter, is an overpriced dump, full of cheesy business owners who will sell their soul for an extra buck.
