Medellin: "A paradise on earth".
Medellin is traditionally known as the “City of the Eternal Spring”.
The privilege of being surrounded by green mountains gives the city all year spring weather, proper for any activity. City’s average temperature is 24º centigrade (74 ºF).
Well known not only in Colombia but all over the world for its beautiful women. The “paisitas” enchant with their particular way of talking. Every time a friend comes to Colombia ask me to introduce him a “paisa” woman. That’s quite of a burden for me. First, I don’t’ live there and second I think my wife wouldn’t be very happy if I spend all my time in this kind of activities just for my friends.
Also it’s known as “The Capital of the Flowers”. Its traditional parade of “silleteros” at the annual “Flowers fair” is one of the most beautiful events in the world.
I like Medellín because is not as big as Bogotá but not as small as Bucaramanga. So if you are looking for a city with all the advantages of big one’s, friendly as small one´s and with the perfect weather, don’t think it twice.
