Day Three in Manizales



In the morning we visited a coffee plantation, Hacienda Venezia. Our excellent guide, after explaining the many aspects of coffee production in a way that was enlightening to most of it us, took us out to examine coffee trees up close.

In the afternoon we visited the nature park Recinto del Pensamiento, riding a colorful chair lift to the top of the park.
