Medellin Vacations

Among fields of flowers and coffee lies the exciting, vibrant city of Medellin. Here you'll find pleasant weather, colorful nightlife and a welcoming local culture that's made Medellin popular with savvy travelers looking to avoid the crowds. The birthplace of Fernando Botero, the famous Colombian artist best known for his paintings and sculptures of exaggeratedly large subjects, Medellin is full of art and life. See it all from the Metrocable, a unique public transit system of elevated cable cars that connect the city's diverse districts and attractions.
