Hey, where you from? I read your blog and it was really interesting to know what to do when visiting Medellin, I’m glad that you came to Medellin and that you liked the art and all the things. Greetings
For many who have heard of Medellin, the name brings to mind the drug-related violence of the 1980s and 1990s, when it was often described as the most dangerous city in the world. Over the last decade, Medellin has worked hard to change its image. The local government is investing in education and social programs, and the city recognizes the importance of providing an integrated public transportation system as the backbone of these projects. Medellin is becoming famous for innovative sustainable transport. Recent efforts to modernize public transit, create better public spaces and improve safety are helping transform the city.
One can notice why Medellin was proclaimed as the most innovative city in the world. Way to go.
