This is so stunning and it hits you as you are crossing the border just this strike of beauty= it is absolutely gorgeous and I had no idea it was there1 What a surprise! the dramatic landscape is fascinating and topped with an ornate intricately designed stunning church, IN THE MIDDLE OF GORGEOUS FORESTED MOUNTAINS. iT LOOKS MORE LIKE fRANCE OR sWITZERLAND THAN Colombia. There are not enough adjectives in English to describe the strikingly beautiful place certainly the most beautiful in Colombia. THis is a must see or forget going to Colombia.
