Guatape

Guatape is an old colonial town best known for colorful tiles on the lower half of the facades of its buildings. These tiles depict everyday scenes, natural features, agricultural produce, and other natural and cultural icons. We had an enjoyable time strolling through the streets and admiring the buildings.

We ate a vegan lunch at Namaste Cafe and then strolled around some more before heading back to the lakeside road and hopping onto the next bus back to Medellin. The bus ride back seemed faster than the ride out and I think it was because there were more downhill coming back.

Muchas gracias to Susie for her invaluable Spanish language skills. We would not have had such a smooth day trip if not for her.
