Overview

We're from Palenque when you go? Come and discover a corner of Africa in Colombia, first community of free African descendants in America, Saint Basil of Palenque, through its cultural attractions: music, language, gastronomy, organizational form, identity murals, monument of Benkos Bioho, monument of Kid Pambele, ancient medicine, religiosity, house museum and all the internal aspects that make it.

THERE ARE SOME TIPS I'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU.
We recommend:
1. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes.
2. Carry sunscreen and insect repellent.
3. Carry some cash, as Palenque’s economy depends heavily on voluntary contributions.

NOTE: After finishing this wonderful experience and by unanimous decision, we take an approximate 15-minute transport tour of each of the murals that color Palenque, so you can take photos and you can save your best memories of the tour.
