Colombia has an eclectic mix of cultures that can be incorporated into an itinerary.

 

The indigenous peoples of Colombia play an important role in national life.

 

In La Guajira, the northernmost point of South America, members of the tribe of Waira are happy and delighted to guide visitors through this desert like landscape and explain their culture.

 

The indigenous peoples of the Amazon and the Sierra Nevada are also eager to share their history and culture with interested visitors.

In stark contrast coffee culture can be experienced in the rolling hills of the coffee region where coffee farms open space in your work to become homeowners and accommodation guides tours of plantations explaining the process of cultivation and preparation coffee Bean.

 

The Spanish Colonial culture is exhibited in the cities of Bogotá, Cartagena and Villa de Leyva, while the contemporary culture of Colombia nowhere is held in Medellin modernity. The interaction between descendants of the original native inhabitants, Spanish colonists, African slaves and twentieth-century immigrants from Europe and the Middle East has produced a rich cultural heritage. Literature, music and the arts play a vital role in national life through live performances, numerous festivals and carnivals, as the literature festival in Cartagena, the Ibero American Theater Festival in Bogotá and the second carnival more largest in South America in Barranquilla. There are also a variety of museums and galleries in all major cities and most surprisingly in some small towns and villages.

 

The sauce makes beating the country, no city beats Cali. Strains of tango to the beat of vallenato drum, dance culture and live music is a profound celebration of Colombia and its people.
