Name of place🔖: Guatape Nearest city🗺️: Medellín, Colombia Access 🚌: there are plenty of local tours from Medellin to take you to this small town 1.5 hour drive away. You can take a bus or if you have a group you can book a private car What’s special ✨ apart from a rock-like hill that attracts a lot of climbers to go up to see the stunning view, this town is also known for being very colourful with happy Latino music playing everywhere. Colombia is just the friendliest and happiest country I’ve been to (among 50+ of them). I’d highly recommend this place. #Guatape #medellin #Colombia #latinamerica #colourful

#fallishere Guatapé is very colorful, the people are very humble. The place lives off tourism. You won't find modern things in most of the city. However, the locals are usually people who left the city to study and returned, or people who have spent their entire lives getting to know their town and the stories. The place is small and everyone knows each other. Tourism being the main source of income, it is a safe place for any tourist.
