"El Poblado is one of Medellín’s most popular neighborhoods, known for its vibrant nightlife, trendy cafes, and upscale restaurants. It’s the area where you’ll find the lively district of Provenza— a hotspot for bars, clubs, and social hangouts that attract both locals and tourists. If you’re looking to experience the more modern, upscale side of the city with plenty of options for dining, nightlife, and entertainment, El Poblado is definitely a must visit!"

" a beautiful district full of green parks, rivers, and edgy industrial buildings covered in plants. El Poblado is not the most authentic part of Medellin as it's considered an upscale area that attracts lots of tourists and wealth people! 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼: Walk around the beautiful streets and eat at some of the MANY restaurants 𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝘁𝗶𝗽: Get a Chocolate con queso from the Chocolate house! 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: https://youtu.be/H92iHno4uFQ"

"Most popular area for tourists to stay in Medellin. Super green area of the city with tons of plants and parks. Lots of great restaurants and craft breweries in the area. Less of a local feel than other areas of the city as most of this district is geared towards expats. This also makes the prices for accomadation higher than other districts. "
