Guatapé (Antioquia, Colombia)

This city is Antioquia, Colombia, I find it very interesting and a beautiful city, with
many tourist placeswith a climate that is neither warm nor cold, it can be said that
it is neutral, therefore fresh and I think that It is a pleasant climate for most
people. I would like to be in this place the next vacation.
Antioquia is a city with different astronomical delights, especially the paisa tray. Its
cuisine is varied and very delicious for any time of day, and the quality of its
people will make you feel at home. Its territory is eminently mountainous and has
a variety of tourist sites to visit such as Piedra del Peñol, El Pueblito Paisa and
others.
There is a great variety of activities to do at any time of the day. In the first image
you can see the Piedra del Peñol a very touristy place that you can get up there by
climbing 740 steps. You can get on the cable cars and take a walk from above,
visit the Antioquia museum, the botanical garden and many parks in the city.
I think it has many positive aspects as is the variety of places to visit, that makes
it an interesting city. The variety of food, the crops, has a pleasant climate, the
people are very helpful, the clothes are of excellent quality and good price, folklore
is contemplated. Negative aspects I would say that so far none because as such I
do not know the city and I would like to know more about it.

PART 3

THE SAN ANDRES ISLAND

The San Andres Island, is the biggest of the islands that are part of the
Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina in the southwestern
Caribbean, 700 kilometers from the Colombian mainland coast is the island of San
Andrés.
The climate of the island is warm, where two seasons predominate summer and
winter. The winds help a little to relieve the heat, blowing generally from the east,
and when there are storms in the Caribbean the winds blow strongly from the
northeast.
San Andres is a paradise island, its sea of seven colors houses colorful fish and
corals brimming with life that tourists love, the beach Spratt Bight has a coastal
promenade lined with palm trees, on the coast is Johnny Cay Park, a small island
with coconut mangroves and white sand beaches. The Old Point Mangrove
Regional Park is a wildlife sanctuary with crabs, iguanas and birds.
The island has about forty diving sites; It is a perfect place to enjoy the beach,
water sports, diving and ecotourism. After an afternoon of beach and shopping in
the free port, the night is filled with music and dancing.
The positive of the island is the beauty of its nature, the ecological sites to visit, its
friendly people and gastronomy.
The negative aspects are the social aspects. One of the problems that most afflicts
the population is overpopulation, drinking water and basic sanitation.

PART 1

In this image I am a hill where you can see the beautiful town of Subachoque in Bogotá,
department of Cundinamarca, That day was very special because we decided to travel by
road with my daughters and we knew many surrounding towns near that city, that town
that is appreciated In the background called Subachoque, it is very special since most of
its inhabitants were descendants of the Muiscas, so the town retains very colonial
traditions, with their original houses from the presence of the Spaniards. That day the
weather is cool, although the sun came out occasionally, the temperature was always
pleasant, it was a wonderful trip.
