With the mountainous city at your fingertips, your day in transformed Medellín can go your way, like exploring the dynamic heart of the city in barrio Centro, home to a bucket list of landmarks like art hub Botero Plaza and a nearby cultural gem with breathtaking views of the bustling city. Next, visit the magnificent artificial forest Parque de las Luces, or see the largest church in the city and a historic museum to return to. Spend lunch digging into traditional steaming Bandeja Paisa at a hotspot with Colombian flair, before basking in the beauty of the 14-hectare Botanical Garden. See where you can catch an outdoor movie with Paisas before heading to the former dumping site Moravia that’s blossomed into a lively barrio lined with resilient street art.
