As such, it\u2019s the kind of place you go and bump into people you know as well as getting talking to strangers. Clearly, the atmosphere is a relaxed one, perhaps assisted by the COL$5,000 half-pint drinks that are pre-prepared for you, or the incredibly reasonable pricing of a pint of strong Cuba Libre (COL$10,000).<\/p>\n<p>It could, of course, just be that infamous warmth of Colombians that permeates throughout the old walls of the club, making foreigners feel not just welcome, but encouraged to try to avoid embarrassing themselves by joining in dancing with the skillful locals.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_724\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-724\" style=\"width: 380px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/seecolombia.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/3535836811_9b0235875c_z.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-724\" title=\"Quiebracanto\" src=\"http:\/\/seecolombia.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/3535836811_9b0235875c_z.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/seecolombia.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/3535836811_9b0235875c_z.jpg 380w, https:\/\/seecolombia.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/3535836811_9b0235875c_z-300x254.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-724\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The adorned walls of Quiebracanto<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The music is a consistent mix of latin-infused vibes with a strong influence from the States, known here largely as cross-over.
