city of Melgar in the department of Tolima. We were staying at
the Cafam Melgar Holiday Center. There are various
attractions, for almost all family tastes, it has two hotels,
convention rooms, green areas, sports fields, constant internal
transport, several restaurants, playgrounds and even a small
