I am Sara and I want to invite you to discover in the company of a local guide, both the most authentic part of the neighborhood, with its stairs, alleys and daily life, and the most touristic area, full of colorful murals that narrate the identity of the 13th Commune of Medellin. Our guides will not only show you the neighborhood, but will tell you their own story and that of their families, marked by difficult years of violence and armed conflict and you will witness how Commune 13 became a symbol of resilience, culture and hope, thanks to social transformation through urban art, development projects and community union.
