Photo Essay: Christmas Lights in Medellin

I previously shared the lights of Envigado in December, so let’s head north to the display set up by Medellin along the river that runs through the city.

This is the real epicenter of holiday decorations in the valley, and the Colombians go out in mass on a clear night to enjoy the atmosphere.

The main display of Christmas lights in Medellin runs along the east side of the river, from the Industriales metro north past Pueblito Paisa, to the Intelligence Building.

It’s the same section of highway that was used for the Flower Parade during La Feria de las Flores.
