Medellin is a great city. Smaller then Bogota and situated in the valley of a mountain. Since the mountains surround the city, the view is beautiful from every angle.

Medellin is known as the City of Eternal Spring: Medellin's average annual temperature is 22ºC (72ºF) and because of its proximity to the equator, its temperature is constant year round with minimal temperature variations. Temperatures range from 10ºC (52ºF) to 30ºC (86ºF).


Medellin was home to the infamous, Pablo Escobar and his house is still there today.

The street food is great here. Clean and fresh, arepas are a diet staple. I like them with butter and salt, but they make them with eggs, ham and cheese too.

The city is full of beautiful parks. World famous artist, Fernando Botero is a native of Medellin and the city is proud to dedicate a park displaying some of his works. Most parks have works of art or a noticeable theme and will at various times of day or weekends will be filled with visitors.

Take a Chivas around the city at night! Chivas are party buses that drive around the streets. They are loud and a fun way to party around with your friends.

In Medellin, there are plenty of options for the nightlife. From clubs, bars, trendy restaurants, cafes. Most clubs are situated in Parque Lleras in the wealthy area of El Poblado.
