Hello friends, welcome to my blog; My name is Johnny and today I am going to take you to a spectacular place here in the city of Medellin, which you have to visit yes or yes when you come here to Medellin and that is the little town of Paisa.

To get to the little town of Paisa we can take the subway from anywhere in the city and get off at the Exposiciones station, from there we can take a taxi that charges us approximately 8 thousand pesos, which would be almost 2 dollars, or we can also walk west for approximately ten minutes until you see a notice that indicates the detour to the Nutibara hill.
Typical Andean house conditioned as a store

The Paisa village is one of the most visited tourist sites in the city that combines three elements that we all love: the Antioquian tradition that is reflected in the crafts, gastronomy and architecture of the place, the majestic view of Medellín and the mountains that run through the valley of will get bored

It is one of the guardian hills of Medellin and is located at the top of the Nutibara hill, with an area of 33 hectares and a height of 80 meters above the level of the city.
Typical balconies of the Andean region, which delights visitors.

At the top, the architecture of a traditional town apparently stopped in time, preserves the bright colors and traditional structure of the towns of Antioquia, a stone square with gardens and a large fountain, a church that stands at the head and a house rural, a mayor's office, a school and a barbershop.
The Paisa town was inaugurated in 1978 and was built with elements and materials from the old town of eastern Antioquia, El Peñón, which was flooded to form another of the most famous Antioquia destinations, the Peñol Guatapé reservoir.

Throughout its history, it has undergone different renovations, the most current of which occurred between 2019 and 2020 in order to align the space with Medellín's position as an eco-city promoting green areas and more sustainable mobility.

Time passes quickly in these places and I feel hungry and I decided to eat a super typical lunch that was recommended to them, although to Colombia and to pass through this town, here in the little town of Paisa there is a food fair, you will also find in many places to take spectacular photos you will also find many things where they sell souvenirs in case you want to take some souvenirs.

You can also visit the City Museum that opens on Sundays if you also want to go, it costs two thousand pesos per person, this time I didn't go in.

As you can see, the day I visited it was a very gray Sunday, a little cloudy, and from the Cerro Nutibara viewpoint, you could see the city, it was a little clear in some areas, but in general it was a little gray day, but if you can see part of it.

The view that can be seen here is 360 degrees, we see the whole city from north to south, from east to west, the view is amazing, at that time it must have been raining to the south, because of the clouds, that's where I stay, It rains a lot in that area, it's where I normally spend the night and it rains there every day.
You already know that when you come to Medellin you have to write down pueblito paisa and one of the first things you should do, it is very easy to get there, access is very easy and very fast, here you can have lunch, you can have a drink, they sell salpicon, they sell cakes They sell single girls, fruit, they sell a lot of real things that you have to come and enjoy to the fullest because the truth is that it's super nice.
I hope the information is useful, don't forget to support me and we'll see each other next time, bye.
