Antioquia, Colombia

Antioquia is located in the northwestern part of Colombia, bordered by the Caribbean Sea to the north. It the 6th largest department in Colombia and the second most populous department after Bogotá with Medellín as the capital of Antioquia. Some of the many places to visit would include the colonial tows of Santa Fe de Antioquia (colonial architecture, cobbled streets, and historic churches.), Jardín (coffee town), Guatapé (colorful zocalos, El Peñol and reservoir), and Jericó (picturesque town surrounded by mountains and coffee plantations). For more nature Parque Arví, Rio Claro Valley and Paramillo National Park are part of the diverse landscape of mountains, valleys, rivers, and forests in Antioquia worth visiting.
