Get Up And Go Colombia is an organization which promotes tourism in Colombia, in regions previously affected by the armed conflict. Through activities and projects based on diversity and inclusion, we transform former war zones into cultural and gastronomic destinations for national and international tourists. We see sustainable tourism as a tool for peacebuilding and for socio-economic development in Colombia. For that reason all our activities and projects are both led by and are for young people, victims of the armed conflict, the LGBTIQ community, vulnerable and indigenous peoples. Enjoy our activities and live your experience from a different perspective. - Free walking tour everyday 10 am and 4 pm - Free trekking tour Sunday 10 am - Spanish lessons under request - Dancing lessons under request

I felt safe in this square. One can find "llll" instead of "IV" on the face of the clock in the clock tower. There were vendors and it was nice to sit and watch as the world went by. There were a couple of blind folks singing at the corner of the square. The whiteness of the buildings make it look clean. The place had a colonial look.

In December the park had an enchanted forest theme to it, with giant flowers and mushrooms, as well as drops of water hanging from the trees. It is best to visit after dark, as all these giant objects are lit up The park was completely full of people, making it a bit challenging to walk around

Little is visible of the devastating 1983 earthquake. The streets are filled with people, as is the Parque Caldas, all in a well-explained, white-washed atmosphere.

The hill is located in the colonial city center and gives a great view of Popayán. The climb up the hill is short and easy.

Reviewed By Robert937 - Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Built in the 1850s to link the center to the northern parts of town where many poor people were living. Keep in mind that the design of many Spanish colonial cities was based on apartheid principles. Only after independence gradually the segregation of different ethnic groups was relaxed. The bridge is perhaps symbolic for the change. Bricks are the main material used in the construction. They are held together by a special kind of 'cement', that is known to be tough and flexible at the same time. Ox blood is part of the substance. The eleven-arch bridge is 240m long and provides an elegant entry to the historic center.

This was a long trip from Cali but worth it. The hot springs have a natural sulfur smell with various pools with different hot to warm temperatures. I believe we paid 10,000COP per person to enter. There is ample room for many with dressing rooms and showers. Outside there are tables and chairs, benches to sit out and cool off. There are restaurants close by and the thermal pools parking lot was large enough for a big gathering. On the way there are hotels and restaurants. Before the end of the road, there is a spectacular waterfall. All-in-all it was invigorating hot springs with mountain stream cold water running out of the rocks and a nice change with fresh cool air. Go! You won't be disappointed the longer you are in the thermal pools the more you want to leave!
