Things To Do
Guatapé
Guatapé is widely known as one of the most colorful towns in the world. Its signature feature is the zócalos—brightly painted, hand-carved relief panels that line the base of every building, depicting everything from local history to the homeowner's trade. Located just minutes outside the town, this colossal 220-meter (720-foot) granite monolith completely dominates the landscape. The summit rewards climbers with a stunning 360-degree view of the vast, maze-like Peñol-Guatapé reservoir snaking through green islands.
Comuna 13
Once one of Medellín's most troubled neighborhoods, Comuna 13 has transformed into a vibrant symbol of resilience and creativity. Today, visitors can explore colorful street art, ride the famous outdoor escalators, enjoy local music and dance performances, and experience one of the city's most inspiring cultural destinations. It is also the home of the original PatoPatí, Camila's aunt and uncle's rubber duck store!
Provenza
One of Medellín's most beloved neighborhoods, Provenza combines lush greenery, award-winning restaurants, chic cafés, and vibrant nightlife, making it a favorite destination for both locals and visitors.
