El Castillo – A Castle And Wonderful Garden In Medellin, Colombia

/3 Comments/in /by

El Castillo is a castle located right in the city of Medellin. It’s on top of a hill so it overlooks the city and offers great views. Constructed in 1930 and modeled after French castles, today it is a museum and garden.

Below are a bunch of pictures in no particular order (well, they are in the order I took them in, actually), showing the outside of the castle, the garden, and views of the city. Pictures were not permitted inside the castle.

Enjoy some more beautiful examples of nature in the tropics!

    Buenas fotos, muy chevre el castillo, aunque colombiana no lo conozco, en Bogotá existe El JARDIN BOTANICO es grandioso hay un mariposario, te recomeindo lo visites en tu estadía en Bogotá. Me gusto mucho lo que leí, en el artículo ¡que caro es ser pobre¡…nuestra fundación, busca erradicar la pobreza mental, pues en Ciudad Bolivar, Bogotá, se vive en medio de la riqueza, pero con mente de pobre da como resultado: justificación, autoconmiseración …finalmente pobreza. Estamos trabajando en esto.
