FIBAS Jardin de Desierto

Reviewed By Pilar5862 - Arlington, United States

We visited the FIBAS garden on a Saturday morning under the blazing sun. It was a beautiful spiritual oasis in the middle of the desert. Monica and Jimmy are great hosts. We did the maze and visited the garden. The landscaping they have done is beautiful.

The old church is one of the main features of the cobblestone square. The interior is gold decor and well worth a visit!

Plaza Mayor

Reviewed By Blogviajero - Medellin, Colombia

I was in 2016. I stayed with my family in Bogota but we decided, visit this wonderful place. I was only there once but, is a place that i would like to visit again. This is a beautiful and quiet town located, about three hours from Bogota. In Villa de Leyva you will find hotels, good gastronomy, craft shops and the largest square in Colombia. This place doesn´t have many activities to do it´s a beautiful and quiet place where you can enjoy a day with your family, coupleor friends and learn more about the local culture

Casa Terracota

Reviewed By GekoPablo

The terracotta house is about a 15 min walk from the main plaza, and well worth a trip to investigate. Almost every little nuance, from lamps, doors, windows, knobs and so much more were intricate works of art. And the design of the house itself is something to behold. The talent and imagination of the artist is unique and very detailed. Anyone that appreciates art and architecture will find this home a must to see. Children will not be disappointed to explore all the little nooks and crannies but I suggest keeping them in reign around the stairs and terraces.
