I've heard that parque lleras has changed recently. Has anyone been there after april? What's it like now?

The Colombian government is cracking down on sex tourists. Medellin has made huge changes with checkpoints in Poblado and Laureles. There have been a few arrests of Americans trafficking minors. They have been turning tourists away at immigration in MDE and BOG, if they can’t provide a valid reason for visiting.

Not safe... I don't recommend going there. You would be wise to stay away from Medellin, unless you have personal connections that you would trust with your life.


I have known someone from Bello for 2 years now. I would not go to Medellin had I not those connections. It is very easy to get yourself into serious trouble in that city, especially if you are going for the ladies.
