It was, once upon a time, the capital of our fair Colombia and that mark is evident to see in the village, especially when you compare it to La Candelaria in Bogota, where Colombia&#8217;s capital was born.<\/p>\n<p>Wandering round the peaceful streets of the village is a great way to delve into Colombia&#8217;s history, and a great opportunity to relax. The streets are cobbled, the walls in colonial design and the many plazas perfect for relaxing in the sun and people watching. One great option is to head out with <a href=\"http:\/\/seecolombia.travel\">See Colombia Travel<\/a>, who arrange a visit to a local house for you.
