THREE GREAT ATTRACTIONS IN THE CENTER OF THE COUNTRY: The Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá, the most visited tourist attraction in Colombia, Villa de Leyva, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Ráquira, the Artisan Capital of Colombia. If you only have two days and don't want to lose any, consider this possibility.
AN ADDITIONAL CHARM: Most of the tour takes place in Boyacá, a province located in the high Colombian Andes, so the influence of Spanish colonization was less than in the rest of Colombia. The same thing happened throughout the South American Andes. For this reason, when you visit a village in the high Andes, you see the same culture and tradition in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. This is called “The Upper Frontier”. When you visit Boyacá, you don't see a province: YOU MEET A CONTINENT!
This tour is ideal for Saturdays and Sundays, for the celebration of the peasant markets of Villa de Leyva and Ráquira.
