If you’re after a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Sitting 45 miles away, Pereira is worth the drive. Soak up the sights beginning with Parque Metropolitano del Café Waterpark, Hernan Ramirez Villegas Stadium and Boliz. The locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Manizales, 50 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Recinto del Pensamiento. (But we’d also highly recommend Bolivar Plaza and Palogrande Stadium.)
