Walking tours are one of my favorite things to do in any city and I highly recommend them, especially when they’re led by a tour guide as amazing as Susy! This one took me around the El Centro (downtown) area of Medellin, Colombia. In addition to learning about the history of El Centro and the buildings there, I learned about some of the special things that they do here for good luck that involve the statues in El Centro.
There was also the opportunity to sample some six-legged delicacies of Colombia that the locals call Hormigas Culonas (big ass ants) that are a delicacy from the Santander region of Colombia.
Stay tuned for part two of my adventures in El Centro!
