Comuna 10 - La Candelaria

Tucked into the narrow Aburrá Valley beside the Medellín River, Comuna 10 – La Candelaria is a central district whose character is shaped by the city’s dense urban basin and year-round mild climate. This is Medellín’s historic and civic core, where the pedestrianized Carrera Junín leads towards Plaza Botero. The square displays 23 bronze sculptures donated by Colombian artist Fernando Botero and stands beside the Museo de Antioquia, an institution founded in 1881. Nearby, Parque Berrío remains a busy meeting point, while the brick Metropolitan Cathedral of Medellín anchors Parque Bolívar.
