Your experience begins at Cra. 108 #38 12, inside the souvenir shop “Recuerdos Viajeros,” where your guide will welcome you.
First, visit the house where Pablo Escobar was killed and hear the story of his final days—hiding in a modest home while his empire crumbled around him.
Next, explore a neighborhood built by Escobar and gifted to the poor, where you’ll learn about his early life and see a large graffiti mural depicting his image.
The journey continues to the Parque Memorial de la Inflexión, a powerful tribute to the victims of car bombings, assassinations, and violence during Escobar’s war against the state. Built on the former site of his Monaco building, it stands today as a symbol of resilience and transformation.
