Skyline of Medellin from the Metro Cable station
Medellín has really figured out public transportation. This is the tranvia, one of the city's newest lines. For less than a dollar it will take you smoothly and quietly into the eastern part of the city. From there you can take a cable car into the hills, or walk back past some amazing street art.
At the top of Nutibarra Hill in Medellin is Pueblito Paisa, a replica of a turn of the century town that offers a glimpse into historical Antioquian villages.

Such an impressive mall. With the heat that we struggled to adapt to in Medellin, we often found ourselves seeking out the comfort of air conditioned malls. Although, malls are not are favorite thing, this was definitely our favorite mall in Medellin. A must see, if you're in the area. #colombia #shopping #travel
