Hola! Welcome to Colombia,
in the Land of Thousand Colors! :)
When you travel to Cali or to Popayán,
you pass through the city of Ibagué.
Ibagué is an intermediate city,
but for our Polish reality, it is quite a metropolis -
- it has 500 000 citizens!
Located on the altitude of 1.200 meters above the sea level,
Ibagué has a fantastic climate -
climate of eternal June
and 25°C all year long!!!
Ibagué was funded in 1550,
so it is one of the oldest cities in Latin America.
3 things to remember about Ibagué:
1. You can try one of the best Colombian coffees from the Planadas region,
which wins more and more specialty coffee contests.
2. it is homeland to the Colombian dish -
Tamales Tolimenses -
made of mashed chickpea, bacon and chicken,
wrapped in a banana leaves,
and Lechona, roasted pork.
3. It is the Colombian Capital of Music.
Music is omnipresent in Ibagué.
You find here the biggest music conservatory in Colombia,
Also, music festivals are organized;
one of them is the Folk Music Festival.
Everywhere in the city you can find sculptures ad figures about music,
and everywhere you find musicians,
who make spontaneous concerts even on the streets.
It is best to come here in June,
to the Folk Music Festival.
You can participate in parades from al Tolima departament,
in gastronomic show,
with Tamales Tolimenses and with Lechona,
and of course the Miss Tolima contest,
when the most beautiful girl from this region is chosen.
Here is one of the best coffees in Colombia, right?
Exactly. This lady knows what to do in Ibagué - :)
Drink one of the best coffees of this region Planadas.
What else to do in Ibagué?
You can go the Orchideario.
In Ibagué, on the altitude of 1.200 meters above the sea level,
orchids grow as quickly as mushrooms after a strong rain :)
and in the Orchideario you can find 200 species
from total 4200 species of orchids that grow in Colombia.
I highly recommend it!
Ibagué is historically rich in gold and silver mines
and today it is one of fastest growing cities in Colombia.
We send you best wishes from Ibagué
