Pueblito Paisa

Since today was a Festivo day in Colombia, I didnt have to go to work, so instead I decided to go to Pueblito Paisa with some of my friends. Pueblito Paisa is in Medellín on top of this fairly large hill within the city, and is a miniature version of what a typical pueblo (town) in Antioquia looks like. So it has a church, old fashioned homes/buildings, and inside each building you can see what old fashioned houses use to look like on the inside... so its filled with furniture, antiques, paintings etc.


One of the best things about Pueblito Paisa are the stunning views it offers of the city of Medellín, not to mention today was a GORGEOUS day, so the views were even better! You could see all of the mountains, all of the barrios throughout the city, and the skyscrapers in the downtown. Check it out:


After checking out Pueblito Paisa we started out trek down the hill, but found these slides you could take halfway down. So obviously we tapped into our inner child and took the slides!


The rest of my afternoon was spent lounging by my pool, soaking in the sunshine on such a beautiful day. I love festivo days!!
