Colombian Andes
FR
The Andean region of the country is a mountainous area where the majority of the population is concentrated in cities like Bogota or Medellin. Beyond its remarkable parks (such as Los Nevados) and opportunities for outdoor sports (particularly around San Gil), the region's appeal also lies in its many traces of the Spanish colonial era (Bachichara, Tunja, Villa de Leyva...) and even pre-Columbian times (San Agustin).
