Welcome to Colombia
Villa de Leyva (www.villadeleyva-boyaca.gov.co...) is a colonial town located in the department of Boyacá, three hours by car from Bogotá. Villa de Leyva is one of the 17 heritage towns of Colombia (www.pueblospatrimoniodecolomb...) and, today, it is one of the most visited Colombian destinations thanks to the beauty of its cobbled streets and the variety of activities that you can do here.
The perfect place for a delicious dinner at Villa de Leyva is Casa San Pedro (www.tripadvisor.co/Restaurant...) where you can try traditional Italian food, Fetuccini with Italian Parmesan and a glass of wine. It is simply delicious. Another of the best restaurants in Villa de Leyva is Mercado Municipal (www.tripadvisor.co/Restaurant..., a restaurant specialized in beef.
On the outskirts of Villa de Leyva is the Archaeological Park of Moniquirá (es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parque_...) or as people usually call it "El Infiernito", in which there are some rocks of more than 2,200 years old, similar to Stonehenge in England. The rocks found in this place were used by the Muiscas, pre-Columbian Indians located in the region, as an agricultural calendar.
In Villa de Leyva you can also visit the Santo Ecce Homo Convent (www.colparques.net/homo) and the Ain Karim Vineyard (www.marquesvl.com/vinedo.html). The Santo Ecce Homo Convent was founded by the Dominicans on March 15, 1620 as an evangelization center and rest house away from urban centers. It is a beautiful stone and brick building that is worth visiting. On the other hand, the Ain Karim Vineyard is the ideal place to taste a great wine in Colombia and learn about the production of wine in Colombia.
And finally, one of the most visited places in Villa de Leyva is Casa Terracota (casaterracota.com), a construction project that combines the four elements, fire, air, earth and water, and turned into architecture.
These are some of all the great places you can visit when you come to Villa de Leyva Colombia, the perfect Colombian destination.

Villa de Leyva es uno de los municipios más turísticos de Boyacá y de Colombia. Y el Departamento de Boyacá es el más seguro del país, por encima de las grandes ciudades y los departamentos más ricos del país. Es más seguro que ciudades como Cartagena O Medellín, y la misma Bogotá. La población de Boyacá es, en general, respetuosa de los visitantes y les gusta la paz y tranquilidad de su tierra. En Villa de Leyva y sus alrededores aprecian la vista de los extranjeros y los nacionales. Si alguna persona le pasó algo como dice usted, en Villa de Leyva, tendríamos que ver qué hizo es persona para que la trataran así...
