Great nation of Latin America, between Venezuela and the Ecuador, with very beautiful landscapes, with so many kilometers of coast, both on the Caribbean Sea and on the Pacific; with a vast Andean region and with the northern part of the Amazzonia.
Unfortunately it is a flagellated state and to a large extent conditioned from the cultivations of coke and from the narcotraffico with guerrillas and serious violences.
The situation is of difficulty solution and also today whole regions of the country are not governable; however people are smiling and pleasant.
The colonial district of Candelaria at Bogotą and the city of Cartagena de Indias are very beautiful and full of charme; both deserve a trip in Colombia.
