Colombia, land of joy

Home to the legend of El Dorado which told of a lost city of gold, to travel to Colombia is like stumbling upon a rare gem. The South American country straddles both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. It has otherworldly rainforests, wetlands, lakes and a river with seven colors. The mountains are swathed in grassy savannas and the cooler coffee-growing region has the world’s tallest wax palm trees. You’re never far from a natural wonder as Colombia is one of the most biodiverse countries on the planet.
