The metro (cable car) to Parque Arví

Day of the journey
11
Place
Parque Arví, Medellín
Altitude
2400 m

The cable car is wonderful. The views of the city from it are breathtaking. You really are very, very, very high up. If you have any fear of heights, this is definitely not fun for you. Sadly the glass is fairly smeared and inside the cabin you feel like you are in a sauna. An unpleasant surprise was that as a foreigner I paid twice what the locals pay. Such discrimination. The ride to the park took about twenty minutes with one change. The queue was fairly long, precisely because of the passport check for foreigners.
