Guatapé, the Devil's Rock (Piedra del Peñol).

I went to Guatapé's El Peñol (Piedra del Peñol) with the people I met at the Japanese guesthouse.
It was a very interesting place.


The town of Guatapé.




Museo De Antioquia

This is a place famous for Botero's works.
There are many sculptures in the plaza as well.
Apparently, Botero was born here in Medellin. Wow.



Even Christ, if he were in the hands of Botero, would be transformed into something like this.



Even a devout and beautiful nun appears like this in Botero's works.
If you like Botero, you should come here, but otherwise, seeing either Bogota or this place is probably enough.




Instituto de Cultura y Patrimonio de Antioquia




Catedral Basilica Metropolitana de Medellin




Beer factory: 3 Cordilleras

I came to the beer factory with a friend from the lodging and had fresh beer.
It was extremely delicious.



It's been over a decade, or perhaps a lifetime, since I felt that beer tasted this delicious.



It is a coffee-flavored beer.
It is extremely delicious.
Because I usually don't drink much, and at most I only drink two glasses, I'm worried about the aftereffects.
However, I might not have another chance to drink such delicious beer for the next 10 years, so I'm going to drink a lot.




Pueblito Paisa (night view).




Centro Comercial Santafe (shopping mall)




El Castillo (castle)

Today, I will visit El Castillo, a castle built by a wealthy person in recent years.
It has a good view from the high ground.The inside is ten times cleaner, but photography is prohibited.

It's not worth coming to Medellin specifically for this, but it costs 10,000 pesos, which is about 360 yen, so if you have time, you might want to consider visiting.


Medellín's ropeway.

Finally, I will take a ropeway in the suburbs.
It seems that this ropeway connects the slum areas.
Because it is located on a high place, the view is normally very good.
