Manizales is a beautiful city nestled in the vibrant mountains of the Colombian Coffee Region.

Manizales is built on a mountain, so it requires easy transportation from top to bottom. The way this is accomplished is the Cable Car. I love riding these things! They are relaxing and have great views. My friends and I were thinking how cool it would be if at night they closed it for traveling, and only allowed you to sleep inside them. It would be such a great way to spend the night.

I love touring old churches. I think it's interesting to see the different styles and colors. Especially, when they are all the same denomination. Here are some of the unique churches in Manizales:
 |
| Gorgeous Stained-glass windows |
 |
| Creepy birds |
 |
| I would love to turn this into a hotel. |
 |
| This could be my house. |
 |
| I love the colors! |
Not only does Manizales have great architecture, but they have cool art sculptures and beautiful views.

I love the fog in these pictures. They make it seem like the beginning of a very mysterious and creepy film.

The walk up the side of the mountain is amazing! It is a refreshing break from the obnoxious traffic and lack of public outdoor space of Pereira. I will always love spending a day in Manizales.
