5 good reasons to (re)go to Colombia #3

To discover Medellin, the city of Pablo Escobar

Yes, but since his death in 1993, all that remains is his ghost and the recent series "Narcos" retracing the life of the drug trafficker. Renewal takes place in the hipster district of El Poblado with its small shops, bars and cafes with trendy baristas. In the evening, it's caliente! The temperature rises a notch to the rhythm of salsa and other sounds. I took the Metrocable, the cable car that connects the city center to disadvantaged neighborhoods. From the cabin, I looked at the tiled and sheet metal roofs before flirting with the treetops of Parc Arvi. Total change of scenery. Also worth seeing is the El Mamm Museum of Contemporary Art, which has just been expanded.

Here we go!

– We leave with Marco Vasco, creator of personalized trips, marcovasco.fr and 01 76 64 74 90.

– Direct Paris-Bogota flights with Air France.

- Or sleep ? In Bogota, at the Hotel de la Opera, in the historic center. In Cartagena, at the Sofitel Legend Santa Clara. Big crush for this former convent.
