#ThailandFlightEvent The small village of Vichabara in Colombia is famous for its textiles. There are colorful textiles all over the village. There is also a cathedral, and it is a very quiet and colorful place to walk and stay. The textile products are also of good quality, so I recommend them.

Colombia | 5 little-known facts you may not know If your impression of Colombia is still "drug lords" and "dangerous", Then you are really OUT! 👇After reading these little-known facts, your perspectives will be refreshed! ① Colombia is one of the earliest democratic constitutional countries in South America As early as 1810, it declared independence and established a republic. In fact, it is very "advanced" in terms of political system, legal system and electoral mechanism. Don't be fooled by movies and TV shows, this is not the real world of drug lords. ② The world’s most beautiful “Rainbow River” is in Colombia [Cano Cristalles River], due to the color change of algae at the bottom, the water presents a colorful color of pink + green + blue + yellow from May to November every year. It is also known as the "flowing rainbow" and the "river from heaven". ③ Colombians love to dance, and everyone knows salsa In Medellin and Cali, residents can be seen dancing in the streets at night. 🎵When the music starts, everyone can dance to the rhythm. Want to make friends? You just need to nod your head and take a basic step. ④ Colombia is the "Emerald Kingdom" 90% of the world's high-quality emeralds come from Colombia. The emeralds here are considered to be the purest in color and the best in cut. Bogota and Supata markets are both great places to buy raw ore/jewelry. ⑤ Colombia is the kingdom of coffee, but locals only drink “cheap small cups” The global export of specialty coffee beans accounts for more than 10%. But the "tinto" that locals drink on a daily basis is just a small cup of hot drink with black coffee and sugar. The boutique coffee experience is more oriented towards tourists, and the "place of origin is the travel destination."

The beauty of Colombia is indeed stunning! The country boasts a breathtakingly diverse landscape, from the Caribbean coast to the Andes, from the Amazon rainforest to coffee-growing regions. 1. **Cartagena** This colonial-style seaside ancient city seems to have overturned the palette with its goose-yellow walls, sapphire-like waters, colorful Baroque architecture, and especially at sunset, the balcony flowers of the Old Town intertwined with the Caribbean breeze. 2. **Coffee Triangle (Eje ​​Cafetero)** The rolling green coffee estates are listed as a UN World Heritage Site, ride horses through cloud-shrouded hills, visit traditional farmhouses, and drink the world’s top fresh roast coffee. 3. **Tayrona National Park (Tayrona)** The perfect combination of tropical jungle and pristine beach, hiking through coconut groves and boulder piles, suddenly encountering the crystal clear bay of Cabo San Juan is like heaven. 4. **El Peñón de Guatapé** With a 220-meter giant rock rising from the ground, after climbing to the top of 740 steps, overlooking a puzzle-like lake and island, the super-saturated colorful town of Guatapé itself is like a fairy tale world. 5. **Amazon Rainforest (Leticia)** Canoeing in the lungs of the earth, encountering pink pufferfish, macaws and primitive tribes, the nighttime firefly starry sky will make you forget about modern civilization.

🚶‍♂️Want to experience the natural wonders of Colombia without spending too much time and money? 🏰Then Cocora Valley, near the town of Salento, is definitely the place for you! Known for its towering wax palm trees, the valley offers spectacular views and is known as the "Lost Valley of South America." 🌟 The tallest palm trees in the world, reaching up to 60 meters high! A thrilling experience like walking through Jurassic Park! 🌱Entrance fee: COP 15,000 🌻Tips to avoid pitfalls (important): 🌷Hiking route options: Short route (2 hours): Excellent scenery, low difficulty, free, highly recommended! Long route (12 km, 6 hours): Average scenery, lots of gravel roads, streams, slippery, some narrow sections, poor experience, and requires an additional COP 8,000, not recommended! 🥾Hiking direction: Clockwise is recommended, but many people get it wrong. Be sure to check the direction on Google Maps in advance to avoid going counterclockwise!  The essence of Cocora Valley lies in the short route, which takes less time, has beautiful scenery, and offers great value. The long route is relatively less appealing and not recommended. 🌟Remember, clockwise is the right direction! Have a great time in Cocora Valley!

As the capital of the coffee kingdom of Colombia, Bogota is the first stop for countless people in South America. It has a unique colonial culture and a unique terrain. It's similar to Quito, a place where you need to wear a jacket even though it's near the equator. If we were to select a livable place, the climate here must be very suitable for human habitation. 🛕Attractions: PLAZA DE BOLIVAR (Figure 2-3) Gold Museum MUSEO DEL OR (Closed on Mondays) EMERALD TRADE CENTER 🦄 Food: 1. La puerta Falsa is near Plaza Bolivar, with long queues, a century-old shop, and local traditional snacks. 2.Club COLOMBIA Local BISTRO, great ambience, grilled chicken, potatoes and the prawn sandwich shown in the photo. 3. I recommend the Andino shopping mall, which has many great outdoor restaurants, a great atmosphere, and a great sense of relaxation.

🎇 When it comes to Colombia, it's a treasure trove full of surprises! The scenery here is as beautiful as if it came out of a fairy tale book. 🌈 In the tropical rainforest, those strange plants seem to be holding a competition to see who is more peculiar. Colorful birds sing happily on the branches, as if they are holding a super concert. 🌄 And the golden beach, with waves coming in one after another, is like the sea giving you a warm hug. 👯‍♂️ The people of Colombia are even more enthusiastic. Walking on the street, you can always get a big smile and a warm greeting, which makes you feel warm inside.

This is El Penol, located in Colombia, South America. It's the town with the largest stone in the world. Wait, is the town too fancy?? Haven't you seen the wonderful door in the movie Encanto??!

Do you know why?🤔 Caño Cristales is known as “the river that ran away from paradise” in Colombia. It is located in the Serranadela Macarena National Park, in a remote and secluded area that is difficult to reach by road. 🌹Macarenia clavigera, a unique species of plant that lines the riverbed will turn a brilliant red during the short period between the wet and dry seasons. Especially when it’s offset by splotches of yellow and green sand, blue water, it makes Caño Cristales a liquid rainbow and one of the world’s most spectacular natural wonders. For environmental reasons, the number of tourists allowed per day was limited to 200, and not a single visitor was allowed to enter for 18 months until its reopening in June, 2021. 🌍 💗The good news is that adventurous tourists can now fly into the adjacent town of #LaMacarena. ⛲️Permits to visit the park must be obtained in advance from the National Parks Office, and visitors must be accompanied by a government-licensed tour guide. 1. 📷：@exploring_dave 2. 📷：@itsnatstravels 3. 📷：@kchae 4. 📷：@nicetrip.tips 5. 📷：@gaboeisenband 6. 📷：@gaboeisenband 7. 📷：@exploring_dave 📍: Caño Cristales, #Colombia

## Once the Indians were beaten with salt whales here, they couldnt wake up every day. In order to pray for their survival, they built a slippery altar in the mine. The environment, dim and damp, repressed with a heavy sense of life, how to say, people still have to have a belief.
