The “PUEBLITO PAISA” is the typical Antioquenean town. It has a church, the mayor's office, the school, the barber's, the shop, the typical house, and other houses around the square. The little paisa town is an icon that represents the beauty of the people of this region and also their customs. It has a panoramic view of Medellin with a natural balcony. There is also the air-free “Carlos Vieco” theatre. The PUEBLITO PAISA is beautiful and is a pleasant place to go on the weekend, the place is big, cool, tranquil and lovely. The children raise kites meanwhile their parents are relaxed. There you can find all kind of crafts and typical food.

The pueblito paisa has always been a typical icon of the city of Medellin. In the photography a general plane of the park can be appreciated. There we can see the main church with old characteristics of the time and the water fountain. We can also appreciate the typical kiosks that are traditionally used to sell fruits, vegetables and meat; but that are currently used to sell handicrafts made by curious craftspeople. The houses reflect the genius and the art of the ancient architects and builders.

“El pueblito paisa” is a very beautiful place where the culture of Antioquia is represented. There you can see how a typical town of Antioquia was. There are many old and little houses, a big square with a fountain in the center and around it a church, bars, and shops where the visitors can find and buy typical things. The buildings are not big and tall as now, and for this reason the place is very nice and natural.
