Outside of Medellín, Colombia, the small pueblo of Jardín sits in a coffee growing region with verdant hills and valleys. Its postcard perfect streets offer a slow pace of life – a great place to take in local culture, relax a bit, sip some coffee, and explore the many views. A gondola transports visitors above the town.

From Medellín, I took a scenic and meandering bus ride there. And Hospedaje Rural La Boira at the edge of town is a bed and breakfast that offered a quaint overnight stay (last photo).
