Colombia is known for its coffee, and whether you drink it regularly both at home and not, make sure to sample it while going to the country. Tintos are extremely small glasses of coffee which are often in love with the streets, from thermoses. Sometimes you’ll see vendors rolling shopping carts having a dozen or even more thermoses around, attempting to keep up with demand.
The country’s most famous salsa spot, Cali is the place to go for all-night hip swishing. Dress to impress in the salsa clubs, which get going at 0200 and don’t stop until 0600. During the day explore the historical centre or visit the bizarrely modern shopping malls.
Bogotá, Distrito Capital, from 1991 to 2000 called Santa Fé de Bogotá, is the capital city of Colombia.
