Brazilian magazine highlights Colombian security as a quality of the country for attracting tourism

“For Colombia, security is now one of the qualities of the country”. Using these words, the Brazilian magazine Panrotas referred to the country after their journey for the discovery of the tourist offer in Bogotá and its surroundings.

The statement is part of a series of publications that the tourists of the neighbor country will see in the next coming days and weeks. Journalists from Panrotas are part of a delegation of communicators that visited Colombia and fell in love with the capital during a trip organized by TAM airline and PROCOLOMBIA.

André Texeira from O Globo; Érico Monteiro from Viaje Mais; Fábio Dutra, from the Joyce Pscowitch magazine and Sávia Reis from Panrotas and the well known photographer Gladstone Campos, got to see the Colombian capital in a journey that took them to the main tourist sites in the Colombian capital.

The colors, flavors and mainly the warmth of Colombians were some of the most outstanding elements highlighted by the carioca communicators. They stated that Bogotá is not only one of the most beautiful cities in Latin America, but also one of the safest.

“I want to go back to Brazil quickly, because that's the fastest way to come back to Colombia. I felt very safe in Bogotá, more than in any other country in the world” said photographer Gladstone Campos.

Without a doubt one of the locations most commented by the journalists was the Emerald Museum, unique in the world because of its incomparable sample of almost three thousand original pieces; the Gold Museum for its incalculable historic value and representation of Colombian richness; La Candelaria neighborhood for its colorful and cultural delight and the Nemocón salt mine with its spectacular 80 meter below ground level scenario.
