Description
Meet your guide, Jaime, who lived through the times of Pablo Escobar and the cartel conflict. Listen as he shares firsthand stories and well-curated information gathered from personal experiences, memories of events, and recent studies about this dark part of Colombia's history.
Begin by learning about the Medellín Cartel and how Escobar rose to become the world's leading cocaine trafficker. Then, explore the park's three areas.
The first is a timeline recounting the key events of the Medellín Cartel's war against the Colombian state. The second zone is the 'Path of Heroes,' where you will discover the stories of brave individuals who refused cartel bribes and fought for Colombia, tragically losing their lives in the process.
Finally, encounter a moving monument dedicated to the thousands of victims—ordinary Medellín citizens who lost their lives in car bombings or shootings ordered by Pablo Escobar.
This experience offers not only factual information but also the chance to see things from the perspective of the citizens who lived through that extreme violence, helping you understand what life in Medellín was like back then.
