But white is also widely represented on the streets. Towns and villages where it feels like you&#8217;ve stepped back in time. Where you walk through the white streets and only want more. Just wanting to sit on a curb to look at the white houses with red roofs. I love white villages and towns and love strolling through the old streets. Even if you are only in Colombia for a few weeks, there is always a white town or village somewhere nearby to experience this atmosphere. Therefore, today I list 10 white cities and towns in Colombia, as well as tips for more white in Colombia!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>1.

Located right next to Bucaramanga, this is a slightly smaller version of Popay\u00e1n, but no less interesting. The town has many bridges and is a true open-air museum. The colonial center was founded in the year 1631 and a delight to walk through. Also enjoy the delicious food in Gir\u00f3n and the many old squares where weddings are regularly held.

The ball village, in other words. You can find all kinds of balls: soccer balls, basketballs, small balls, leather balls, you name it. They hang and lie everywhere. Yes really, seriously.

People still use looms here to make all kinds of things from cotton and wool and celebrate ancient festivals. If you are in the area be sure to visit Iza. I myself have been there about three times.

And surely that is saying something. A visit to the scorching hot Santa Fe de Antioquia is a trip back in time. This village is certainly one of the most beautiful I have seen in Colombia. And there are quite a few of them. Wander the centuries-old streets, admire the 18th-century Santa B\u00e1rbara Church and drink fresh fruit juice to cool off a bit. This village is definitely recommended! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/en\/santafe-de-antioquia-where-time-stood-still\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>You can read more about Santa Fe de Antioquia here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-8' class='gallery galleryid-31314 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Wit-Santaf\u00e9-de-Antioquia.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Colombia in color - white - Santa Fe de Antioquia\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Wit-Santaf\u00e9-de-Antioquia.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Wit-Santaf\u00e9-de-Antioquia-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Wit-Santaf\u00e9-de-Antioquia-744x496.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Wit-Santaf\u00e9-de-Antioquia-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Wit-Santaf\u00e9-de-Antioquia-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Wit-Santaf\u00e9-de-Antioquia-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>9.

Even though there isn\u2019t a whole lot to do, it\u2019s an ideal place to pick up some souvenirs before heading home, wander through Guatavita\u2019s very distinctive little streets, enjoy a coffee by the lake, or use it as a base for visiting <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/en\/laguna-de-guatavita-in-search-of-colombian-gold\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Laguna de Guatavita<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Here in Guatavita everything is white and yes that is very beautiful.

Na bijna 3 jaar in Bogot\u00e1 te hebben gewoond ben ik verhuisd naar het leuke dorpje Sop\u00f3, Cundinamarca. Om begin 2022 weer terug te verhuizen naar Bogot\u00e1, waar ik nog steeds woon. Vanuit daar neem ik je met veel passie mee op reis het prachtige Colombia in en deel ik allerlei handige tip &amp; reisroutes. Als local ken ik de leukste plekjes en geef ik actuele informatie.
