Outside the museum you can find the sculptures of Fernando Botero, a famous Paisa artist. Inside Antioquia Museum, you will delight yourself with a mix of national and international art in its several rooms.

Right outside, we will go to visit the flea market, to then head to Parque Bolívar, and listen to the history behind its church and foundation. Then, we will visit a traditional coffee shop downtown to have a typical coffee in the Colombian way and learn in depth about the different kinds of preparation.

Once you are all satisfied, we will walk along Junín pedestrian street, this one will take us to La Playa Avenue. This is an important street where the first houses were built in Medellin. You will walk all the way up this avenue and will find Placita de Flores market, a traditional market where you can get organic fruit. Here you’ll have a well-deserved fresh juice after a long walk.
