After decades of civil conflict, Colombia is now safe to visit and travelers are discovering what they’ve been missing. The diversity of the country may astonish you. Modern cities with skyscrapers and nightclubs? Check. Gorgeous Caribbean beaches? Check. Jungle walks and Amazon safaris? Check. Colonial cities, archaeological ruins, high-mountain trekking, whalewatching, coffee plantations, scuba diving, surfing, the list goes on. <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dHyDMVSQsRk/T1aMtUMonmI/AAAAAAAADgM/vZfIDbzsVZM/s1600/Colombia+7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="115" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dHyDMVSQsRk/T1aMtUMonmI/AAAAAAAADgM/vZfIDbzsVZM/s200/Colombia+7.jpg" width="200" /></a>No wonder the ‘magic realism’ style of Colombian author Gabriel García Márquez emerged from here – there is a dreamlike quality to Colombia. Here at the equator, with the sun forever overhead, the fecund earth beneath your feet, heart-stopping vistas in every direction and the warmth of the locals putting you at ease – you may find it difficult to leave. Colombian culture, like the country’s weather, varies by altitude.<br /><br /><a name="more"></a><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PByQMS-o4Yc/T1aMltGmn8I/AAAAAAAADfU/sZakB2sM28U/s1600/Colombia+13.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="233" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PByQMS-o4Yc/T1aMltGmn8I/AAAAAAAADfU/sZakB2sM28U/s320/Colombia+13.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGBbBKZmTOWLgl2n-_eurL896EH0RhN16gCXid_S7TarjAweSPzxooPrwlDWu0FhM-GK7AQCVtjBUv9rQoAdxnG5rfhnlFUgb01MpXMu86uuDmznhCWlywTKYOMUQg-2gDUDSwLM56USM/s1600/Columbia+52.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGBbBKZmTOWLgl2n-_eurL896EH0RhN16gCXid_S7TarjAweSPzxooPrwlDWu0FhM-GK7AQCVtjBUv9rQoAdxnG5rfhnlFUgb01MpXMu86uuDmznhCWlywTKYOMUQg-2gDUDSwLM56USM/s200/Columbia+52.jpg" width="200" /></a>The essence of Colombia resides in the mountains in the alpine cities of <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=363308">Bogotá</a>, <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=363323">Medellín</a> and <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=363331">Cali</a>, and the smaller cities of the <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=363325">Zona Cafetera</a>.

The infrastructure in the mountain region is good, the water drinkable, the roads well maintained. In the heat of the Caribbean coast, life is slower, and the culture more laid-back. The accent is the unhurried drawl of the Caribbean basin, and the infrastructure, unfortunately, is still in need of some attention. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD2gbJ3gRRG_lGVZWnAyZWeFS8E3qPhim9NlxBKE3JB7x4VrT0J2y_vd8zvN902pbd8khlIkK-Wsn-ppo7GOemUdzaZu-8Wtm0YDucz-fHN3HbUC19vyY11KJj0y6SFOPE-iMhNi81g_lf/s1600/Colombia+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="203" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD2gbJ3gRRG_lGVZWnAyZWeFS8E3qPhim9NlxBKE3JB7x4VrT0J2y_vd8zvN902pbd8khlIkK-Wsn-ppo7GOemUdzaZu-8Wtm0YDucz-fHN3HbUC19vyY11KJj0y6SFOPE-iMhNi81g_lf/s320/Colombia+2.jpg" width="320" /></a>In darker days people used to say, ‘if only it weren’t for the violence and drugs, Colombia would be paradise.’ Well the drugs may still be here but the violence is gone, at least for now, and it is, indeed, paradise.

Salt Cathedral is a cathedral that was built underground in a salt mine tunnels, located in Colombia. The Cathedral was put into use in 1954. Zipaquirá salt deposits formed 200 million years ago, during which there is a sea level rise during the third and final time when the Andes Mountains formed. The mine is formed during an era in the days before Muisca the Spaniards came to America.
