Tierradentro
The National Archaeological Park of Tierradentro, one of the most important sites in Colombia, where we will arrive at this place of great anthropological and historical wealth, and once there you will understand why it is called that.
We will take a tour of the park, where we will be able to observe vestiges of three historical periods: pre-Hispanic, colonial and republican. We will walk among its underground tombs called hypogeums, excavated in the volcanic rock itself, and we will admire the decorations of the different funerary chambers. Did you know that some reach a depth of 8 meters?
In addition, we will learn the history of the brave Paece indigenous people, who inhabited this territory before the arrival of the Spanish and allied themselves with their neighbors to try to protect their lands.

San Andrés de Pisimbalá-Santa Rosa
After visiting the tombs, we will go up to the surface to observe the stone statues of indigenous idols in the shape of animals and we will access the museum, which houses some of the objects found in the excavations.
After this visit we will take a break to regain strength with a lunch that includes a chicken or meat dish accompanied by rice, soup, salad, patacones and a drink. In the afternoon, we will discover the vestiges of the colonial era by visiting the church of San Andrés de Pisimbalá, a curious structure built of stone and with a thatched roof. After a great tour we begin our return to Popayán.
