\u00a0La capital risaraldense celebra este mes de agosto sus 152 a\u00f1os de vida administrativa. Si bien es cierto a\u00fan no logra desarrollar su potencial tur\u00edstico en las dimensiones que lo ha logrado el vecino departamento del Quindio, cuenta con condiciones excepcionales para igualarlo\u00a0 en el mediano y largo plazo.\u00a0 Seg\u00fan la agencia de Promoci\u00f3n e Inversi\u00f3n Invest in Pereira, la ciudad\u00a0 y Risaralda cuentan con una ubicaci\u00f3n geogr\u00e1fica inmejorable para el turismo nacional e internacional, pero tambi\u00e9n para los\u00a0 negocios, pues est\u00e1 ubicada en el coraz\u00f3n del Tri\u00e1ngulo de Oro, \u00e1rea que concentra el 76% del PIB Nacional y el 56% del total de la poblaci\u00f3n y ubicadas de manera equidistante (200 kms. lineales) a los tres principales centros de consumo nacional (Bogot\u00e1, Medell\u00edn y Cali) y al puerto de Buenaventura. Adicionalmente, es el centro del Tri\u00e1ngulo del Caf\u00e9,\u00a0 regi\u00f3n que alberga 2,4 millones de habitantes y que constituye el \u00e1rea de influencia intermedia tanto en t\u00e9rminos de consumo como de acceso al talento humano.<\/div>\n

En su af\u00e1n de llevar a Pereira por el camino de su desarrollo competitivo, el alcalde Enrique V\u00e1squez Zuleta en alianza con los gremios de la zona,\u00a0 viene liderando, una serie de estrategias orientadas a atraer inversionistas nacionales y extranjeros para consolidar\u00a0 la ciudad como la puerta de entrada al Paisaje Cafetero Colombiano – Patrimonio Cultural de la Humanidad. Los resultados no se han dejado esperar. Las muestras m\u00e1s fehacientes giran alrededor de la modernizaci\u00f3n del aeropuerto Mateca\u00f1a que inaugur\u00f3 el mes anterior su nueva torre de control y\u00a0 la ampliaci\u00f3n de su pista.\u00a0 A lo anterior se suma los notorios avances en la construcci\u00f3n del Bioparque Ukumar\u00ed en el sector de Cerritos, cuya fase de pre-operaci\u00f2n se inici\u00f3 tambi\u00e9n con el traslado de los primeros animales del antiguo zool\u00f3gico Mateca\u00f1a a la que ser\u00e1 conocida como la biorregi\u00f2n Andina,\u00a0 cuyas puertas se abrir\u00e1n\u00a0\u00a0 al p\u00fablico a finales del pr\u00f3ximo mes de septiembre.
\nY la tercera apuesta del gobierno pereirano, apunta a la construcci\u00f3n del nuevo centro de convenciones en el sector de Expofuturo, como herramienta clave para el desarrollo del cl\u00faster de turismo de convenciones y congresos, proceso que comenz\u00f3 a tomar forma con la adjudicaci\u00f3n del contrato de obra respectivo por parte del gobierno nacional e alianza con la C\u00e1mara de Comercio de Pereira. Estamos seguros que estas tareas no son suficientes para proyectar la ciudad como un verdadero destino tur\u00edstico, pero constituyen un avance significativo para llegar a esa meta que exige adem\u00e1s,\u00a0 una verdadera voluntad pol\u00edtica de su clase dirigente.<\/p>\n

Pereira and its anniversary festivities<\/h4>\n
The capital city of Risaralda will celebrate its 152 years this month. And even though it is true it hasn?t fully developed its touristic potential in the way Quind\u00edo has, it excels in conditions to achieve that goal in a close term. According to the promotion and inversion agency Invest in Pereira, the city and entire Risaralda have got an unbeatable geographic location for national and international tourism and business as well, as it is located in the center of the so called \u00abGolden Triangle?, an area which sums up 76% of the national GDP and 56% of total population; an area delimited by Bogot\u00e1, Medell\u00edn and Cali and equidistant to Buenaventura?s maritime port. Additionally, it is the center of the \u00abCoffee Triangle?, which homes over 2.4 million people and constitutes an area of intermediate influence both in consumption and human workforce.
\nIn its desire to take Pereira onto the way of competitive development, Mayor Enrique V\u00e1zquez Zuleta has allied with zone unions leading a series of strategies to attract national and foreign investors to consolidate the city as entrance door to the Colombian Coffee Landscape ? Cultural Heritage of Mankind. Proof of hard work can be exemplified with the modernization process of Mateca\u00f1a Airport which just inaugurated its control tower last month. We can add the notorious advances in the construction of Ukumari Biopark in the sector of Cerritos, in a pre-operative phase with the transfer of animals from old Mateca\u00f1a Zoo to what will be known as the Andean Bioregion and which will open in September.
\nThe third bet coming from Pereiran government aims to the construction of a new convention center at Expofuturo sector. A key tool for the development of convention and congress tourism cluster. This process took form with the adjudication of the construction contract by the national government in an alliance with the local Commerce Chamber. We are sure these tasks are not enough to project the city as a true touristic destination, but they constitute an important advance towards the objective which will also require a real politic goodwill by its ruling class.<\/p>\n
