About
An hour and a half west of Medellin, dropping in altitude the whole way, this whitewashed colonial town has kept its 16th century street grid and a climate closer to the Caribbean coast than the mountain city it day trips from. The plaza market sells the tropical fruit and sweets that do not grow at Medellin's elevation, and the Puente de Occidente, once one of the longest suspension bridges in the world, is a short taxi from the centre. Go on a weekday if the heat and crowds of a Sunday market are not the plan.
