It's a cafe/art gallery/music venue/bar, in the heart of Medellin Centro. It definitely has a soul of its own, out of the tourist track. Check the agenda as it constantly hosts events.

One of our old-time favorites. Open since 1957 is one of the oldest most traditional café/bars in El Centro. They usually have live performances, Tango dance lessons. You will find yourself immersed among (usually elderly) locals. Bad service is part of their DNA ;)

A family owned, traditional restaurant specialized in homemade food. Make sure you check their "cazuela de fríjoles" only served on fridays. Get there before 12:30-1PM...usually they ran out of cazuelas.

A linear park next to the Medellin river where part of the main highway of the city was moved underground and a large, green open space was recovered for the residents. You can go for a walk or a jog. Nice for picnic and for an afternoon stroll.

Natural reserve in the rural part of Medellin. Beautiful to hike around, eat traditional foods at a campesino house and to go out of the city. You can reach it through a 1 hour metro/cable car ride. A must see!
