Description
Medellín is the capital of the Antioquia department in Colombia. Known for its pleasant climate, the city is often referred to as the 'City of Eternal Spring.' Medellín has undergone significant social and economic transformation over the past few decades, evolving from a troubled past associated with drug trafficking to a vibrant cultural and technological hub.
The city is home to numerous parks, museums, and cultural institutions. Notable sites include the Medellín Botanical Garden, the Museum of Antioquia, and Plaza Botero, which features the large sculptures of renowned artist Fernando Botero. Medellín also hosts various festivals throughout the year, highlighting its rich cultural heritage.
In recent years, Medellín has gained recognition for its innovation in urban development, particularly through projects that enhance mobility and public spaces. The city's cable cars, known as 'Metrocable,' connect the urban center with surrounding hillside communities, improving access and promoting social inclusion.
