Statues, bamboo bridges and tombs


Marzo 22 / 2019 / Dia 7
 San Agustín / Colombia

Un día de relax, de disfrutar e ir poniendo cosas en orden.  Después de un buen desayuno tomamos nuestro tuk tuk rumbo a el parque arqueológico San Agustín, que quedaba a 15 minutos de nuestro hospedaje.

 Al principio nos pareció un poco costosa la entrada, y adicional no compartimos que las personas extranjeras paguen más.

Fue un recorrido por senderos, escaleras y caminos llenos de tumbas, piedras y estatuas; con fauna y flora protegida por el parque.
Quedamos sorprendidos del buen cuidado, mantenimiento y seguridad de todo el parque.
Es un destino infaltable de Colombia.

Today we would stay put in San Augustin to have time to put things in order.  After a good breakfast we took our Twiggy to the San Agustín archaeological park, which was 15 minutes from our lodgings.
At first we found the entrance fee a tad expensive, especially when foreigners have to pay more.
We followed tracks through the woods.  They were lined with statues and sculptures and clearings in the woods were full tombs and thank goodness the fauna and flora were protected by the park.
We were surprised by the good care, maintenance and security of the entire park.

It is an unmissable destination of Colombia.
