In front are older house and in the background construction of taller buildings during the last 10 years. The houses on the mountain side that a

Typical streets in the neighbourhood of our hotel. Plenty of restaurants, small shops (mostly for ladies). We are 2 km from downtown Medellin and there are many parks like this one.
