Founded in 1616 and long an industrial and coffee-trade hub, Medellin became infamous for cartel violence in the 1980s-90s, then engineered a celebrated turnaround with bold public transit, libraries and parks that made it a global model for urban renewal.
Paisa culture is proud, entrepreneurial and warm — sweeping mountain views, the hearty bandeja paisa, salsa and reggaeton (the city birthed global stars), and a spring-like climate that keeps life outdoors all year.
