Cityscape Calle Empedrada

This is a beautifull colombian town, surrounded by a great landscape of mountains and endemic nature, but what makes this place unique is the use of a beautifull Stone from local quarries, which you can see here, they use for every road in town.

Nice shots! It is always nice to see "off the beaten track" pictures of other countries. Thanks for sharing.
Best.

This beautiful place doesn't tally with Colombia's unfortunate news reputation, its bright side needs to be emphasised more.

So calm. I like the hills in the background.

It is actually relaxing walk around, you will find a nice detail in every corner, a wonderfull view in every direction, and there are some spots in the high part of town, where you can even have a great view of the mountains around...so is a mix of landscape and the town!!!

I really like the first image and I kept coming back to it.

I finally worked out what it was about the scene, that was so eye catching... the lack of vehicles and the sensation of space that creates.

These are terrific images. The street and buildings are very well maintained. It is a beautiful place.

Sometimes you see a place with some beauty, one may not explain what is it.....but is there, I'm just happy the image show what I saw.
Thanks for the feedback.

Yes, it is a beautifull town, in addition, it was a cloudy day and the soft ligth gave me the chance to catch the color in a nice way.
