"The Only Risk is Wanting to Stay"

"Colombia, the only risk is wanting to stay," that's a very famous quotation everywhere. Despite of some bad comments, Colombia is a gorgeous country with a lot of fancy places to visit. One of the best places tourists should visit and admire the unique nature is "El Eje Cafetero", where the most delicious coffee in the world grow up. El Eje Cafetero is situated close to the west cost of Colombia and is part of three "cafeteras"cities; the weather is most of the time warm, between 22 and 25 degrees. Because of that, there are many ecoturist plans to do during the year.
One good plan, is visit the famous natural cloud forest "Valle de Cocora"; this is a place where you can find the the wax palm, which is the tallest tree in the world and the national symbol in Colombia. To get there people just need to use horseback riding or jeep. People can stay in this astonishing place 2 days to enjoy the traditional Colombian food, the beautiful overview and countless cups of coffee.
Another relaxing plan is go to "Parque Nacional del Cafe," a very big and interesting place where you can discover all the process about growing coffee, meanwhile you are having fun in knowing history, walking around to see plantations of many varieties of coffee bushes and plantain, using a gondola lift, riding on the roller coaster and watching shows.
"El Eje Cafetero" is one of the traditional places to visit in Colombia and I'm completely sure that people who go there will fall in love, because Colombia more than have beautiful places is full of nice and kind people.
