    When taking safety measures into account, it’s a nice park to check out the Botero statutes. Be aware of pickpockets though. Also, don’t miss out on the Museum of Antioquia with gorgeous art which is in the same confined area

    I didn’t go at night , but honestly to me looks pretty safe . A little bit dodgy but you are in Colombia too. A few homeless and a little bit of bad smell but good energy overall . Good place to spend a couple of hours , just stroll and chill and watch the peoples . My advice : maybe avoid at night

    I call it my park after coming here for my fourth year. I know almost all the people and people know me. The food at night is very good!

    It was a Sunday so the plaza was packed with people sitting solving world problems and couples dancing. It was a very lively place.

    I was very disappointed when I visited this park after 12 years. The city has been abandoned by the local authorities. It is dirty and way too disorganized. It is my city, I love Medellín but it needs a huge improvement to allure tourist and deliver to its citizens. An immediate improvement is needed. Medellín mecece lo mejor!!!

    Parque Berrio is a local spot filled with shops, stands and sellers. Public transportation all around. Too many shops to count. Various drinks vendors and restaurants available. Place gets very crowded so not for the faint of heart. Plus a couple of good spots for picture opportunities.

    Important metro station but many people around and maybe you should pay attention to pick pockets

  • 5/5 Ron W. 4 years ago on Google
    To me this area is the real Colombia. The metro stops right on top of the park, makes it a good place to stop off for coffee or lunch and walk around a bit.

  • 4/5 Terry C. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, busy interesting place for a park also to purchase nick nacks .

  • 4/5 Jon G. 2 years ago on Google

    Central... Real local People

  • 4/5 Guacamaya T. 4 years ago on Google
    Despite being so ruined by history (all of the colonial buildings surrounding the square were brought down, but the church), it's still the main square of Medellin. This is where Medellin was funded back in mid 17th century.

  • 4/5 Jose Luis C. 2 years ago on Google
    A lot of sellers and loudly sites but it's nice for only selfies

  • 5/5 GEORGE E. 2 years ago on Google

    Alot of thing to do around this area. EVERYTHING IS REALLY CHEAP.But i would not recommend the foods every food around here is not to good. Park is really nice.A plus arpund the corner are so many ho3s very cheap prices.I would not recommend you come around after 6 p.m. Be very carefull pulling your phone out ive seen people just come up and steal peoples cell phones right out the buses windows or peoples hand and just run off.But prices for vegtables and fruites are fresh and pretty cheap.

  • 4/5 Tara M. 9 months ago on Google
    This whole area is very cool and full of Medellin history. Lots of vendors around with food and souvenirs... And Fake sneakers if thats your thing. Lol If you are able I recommend a walking tour at night- it's a whole different place when the sun goes down. I don't recommend doing it alone tho, guided tours are easy to find.

  • 5/5 Don M. 10 months ago on Google

    I front of the park, nice area to walk and grab a bite

  • 3/5 Michael M. 1 year ago on Google
    Large open space with interesting sculptures and pretty tree bordered by ornate and fading historic buildings. Busy in the day with tourists, hawkers selling tinto, ice cream, cellphone accessories, illegal services, and people walking to work and lots of others doing nothing. Lots of litter. Many police. Very dangerous at night.

  • 5/5 Victor 1 year ago on Google
    The litteral heart of Medellin. A walk to Parke Bolivar and you'll take in all rhythms of daily life here.

  • 4/5 Juan Manuel Salazar N. 1 year ago on Google

    A park with a lot of movement. You can buy things over here, just relax, see how people pass the time and the days, you can polish your shoes, drink some "tinto", eat a mango. You will see a lot of people that will like to sell you different things. Please be careful with the pickpockets.
