Pueblito Paisa sits on top of Cerro Nutibara, a hill rising from the middle of the Aburrá Valley. It was planned in the mid-1970s as part of the city's tricentennial celebrations, led by architect Julián Sierra Mejía, and opened on 3 March 1978. It models a typical Antioquian village of the early twentieth century, with a whitewashed church, a stone fountain and a main square, and is reported to use some materials salvaged from the old town of El Peñol, flooded for the Guatapé reservoir.
Down in the city centre, Plaza Botero is an open-air gallery of Fernando Botero's rounded bronzes, 23 of them according to common counts, placed in front of the Museo de Antioquia. Botero, born in Medellín in 1932, gave the sculptures to the city, which is why they stand freely in a public square rather than behind glass.
Together the two stops give you a sense of how Medellín presents itself: a nostalgic idea of the paisa village up on the hill, and a bold modern art statement in the downtown plaza.
