Language and tourist places
Do you speak Spanish? Are there any historical places like Mayan / Incan temples to visit?
[QUOTE=Sun08;1755136]I was in Medellin for a week for the first time and visited three Casas. With all these information on this site and the maps I had no issue to decide where to go and how to get there. I stayed in Poblado, fairly close to El Poblado Metro Station. During my stay I used both metro and taxi. The first place I went to was the Energy. I took the Metro to Floresta Station and from there it is a short taxi .
I spent the rest of my time in tourist spots, shopping malls, riding the metro, etc. Medellin is a nice city except some days it can get hot during the day. If you are looking for places to visit during your stay, get hold of "mapa touristico de medellin". All the tourist spots, shopping malls, parks, and map of metro is in there. You can get a copy of it at the airport, bus terminals, and Botero Plaza. At Botero Plaza there is a kiosk. That is where I got mine. The map is free for the tourists. I think he asked for ID. If you like aquarium and fish, visit Parque Explora. The ticket is 22 k.[/QUOTE]
