Great shopping for artisan materials. Ninety percent of Colombian artisan art is produce in and around Raquira. Best pricing for these items at the dozens of stores and outlets. Also great restaurants. I always stop when I visit Villa de Leyva.
Great shopping for artisan items many stores huge huge selection. Every restaurant I've been to is also very good. Easy to spend too much. But prices are best for these items here.
