What to expect
Medellin
tart with one of our architectural references, which can be seen in the many churches, one of them, the Church of Perpetual Help, it is inspired by the French Gothic. This is reflected in the facade, which highlights the archivolt of the main door, the central rose window and two tall towers, topped by a work in glass and copper, so the temple is also known as the church of mirrors. Learn how this historic neighborhood is transformed into the Perpetual Socorro Creative District, a reality for companies, entrepreneurs, groups and people who imagine the future.
Plaza Botero
Emerged as part of the transformation that took place in the downtown area of Medellín and in the Museo de Antioquia at the beginning of the 21st Century. Its construction entailed tearing down an entire block of buildings in order to recover public space for Medellin’s citizens. Artist Fernando Botero donated the 23 sculptors and the Plaza bearing his name is his largest open air museum.
Parque de la Luces
Takes its name in homage to the Cuban engineer Francisco Javier Cisneros, precursor of the Antioquia Railroad. It is located between the EPM Library, the Vásquez and Carré Buildings and the old Railway Station. In 2002 it was remodeled and since then presents its current appearance. This old square, known as square of Guayaquil, was one of the busiest places in the city, a space where there were different manifestations of the life of Medellin, because the square became the “site of everything” there you could buy, sell and trade what people needed, which caused all people regardless of class or social strata to frequent their spaces.
Centro Administrativo La Alpujarra
(Officially José María Córdova Administrative Center) is an urban complex of buildings from where the Departmental governments of Antioquia and Municipal de Medellín are administered. There, they sit in a large square crowned by the work "Monument to the Race" by sculptor Rodrigo Arenas Betancur, the governor of the department of Antioquia and the Departmental Assembly, as well as the Mayor's Office and the Council of Medellín.
El Velodromo
Martín Emilio Cochise Rodríguez, in honor of Cochise historic Colombian cyclist, has taken the great figures of the moment such as Fernando Gaviria, Juan Esteban Arango, Juliana Gaviria and Fabián Puerta, among others.
It is possible to live the past of that city of trams, mules and pianolas. A place full of history and charm. In its environment and walls it is possible to perceive the years of history, music, laughter and dance that have been part of a thriving culture. His music and Gardel's stories make you travel to Medellin before.
Noise Lab Manila
Is a new concept of commercial space in Medellín, where various proposals of young paisa designers or natives of Medellín come together, among majestic trees and traditional houses. As in London's Oxford Street, Fifth Avenue in New York and Montaigne Avenue in Paris, Medellin also offers a route where you find commerce, amid modern architecture and an urban context.
