Pueblito Paisa Guide
Step Back in Time at Pueblito Paisa Guide
Pueblito Paisa is a charming replica of a traditional Antioquian village, perched atop Nutibara Hill in Medellín. It offers visitors a delightful glimpse into the region's cultural heritage and provides stunning panoramic views of the city. This is a must-see for anyone wanting to experience the essence of Antioquia without leaving Medellín. The "little town" was created in 1976 to preserve and showcase the architectural style and way of life of early 20th-century Antioquia. It features a central plaza surrounded by a church, a mayor's office, a barber shop, a school, and traditional houses, all built with authentic materials. The buildings are filled with artifacts and displays that depict daily life in a rural Antioquian community. Visitors can stroll through the cobblestone streets, admire the colorful architecture, and enjoy traditional Colombian cuisine at the restaurants and cafes. You can purchase handicrafts and souvenirs from local artisans. Don't miss the opportunity to try a "bandeja paisa," a hearty platter of beans, rice, meat, avocado, and plantain, or a refreshing "aguardiente," the local anise-flavored liquor. The views of Medellín from the hilltop are breathtaking, especially at sunset.
Transportation
The easiest way to reach Pueblito Paisa is by taxi or Uber. Alternatively, you can take the Metro to the Industriales station and then take a bus or taxi up the hill. Several bus routes serve Nutibara Hill, including those marked 'Nutibara' or 'Pueblito Paisa'.
