Nos volvemos redundantes al hablar de nuestra bella tierra cafetera como destino de encanto y de experiencias \u00fanicas para quienes lo recorren por estas calendas de fin y nuevo a\u00f1o, y durante cualquier \u00e9poca, porque se trata de un zona\u00a0 tan maravillosa que su escenograf\u00eda natural engalanada por valles y monta\u00f1as tapizados con los m\u00e1s variados verdes y decoradas por frutales de vistososos colores, corroboran por qu\u00e9 tenemos todos los m\u00e9ritos para ser incluidos por la Unesco en la lista de bienes patrimoniales de la humanidad, desde hace ya 6 a\u00f1os.
\nA todo lo anterior, debemos sumar otro elemento que nos catapulta como gran atractivo tur\u00edstico a nivel mundial, y tiene que ver con los trinos y la belleza y colorido de nuestras aves, tal y como lo acabamos de vivir con el Sexto Congreso Nacional de Aviturismo llevado a cabo en la ciudad de Manizales con cerca de 500 participantes, que ratificaron en carne propia por qu\u00e9 \u00e9sta es considerada \u201dLa Meca\u201d del aviturismo a nivel mundial.\u00a0 Vale la pena destacar que al igual que Caldas, Risaralda, Quindio y Valle del Cauca\u00a0 son para\u00edso de aves en el planeta.\u00a0 !Sin duda que las aves son\u00a0 un imperdible para esta temporada de\u00a0 fin y nuevo a\u00f1o!.
\nAl im\u00e1n de nuestras bellezas naturales, tenemos que sumarle las envolturas luminosas que engalanan nuestros pueblos de encanto por esta \u00e9poca, como Quimbaya y su tradicional y afamado festival de Velas y Faroles;\u00a0 Salamina con su fiesta de la Luz,\u00a0 El Parque del Caf\u00e9 y su especial celebraci\u00f3n del 7 y 8 de diciembre; las r\u00e1fagas que emanan las ciudades capitales como Manizales, Pereira y Armenia que sanamente compiten por atraer visitantes con sus iluminaciones tem\u00e1ticas; al igual que la mayor\u00eda de poblaciones que armonizan bellamente las luces navide\u00f1as con las finas\u00a0 fachadas de sus casas y la exuberancia de sus verdes parques.
\nEl men\u00fa de opciones para el turismo, se ve fortalecido con otras celebraciones que permiten dar forma a un coctel navide\u00f1o y fiestero como la Feria de Manizales y a fiestas aniversarias como las de Salento y Dosquebradas, entre otras localidades.
\nNo hay excusa pues, para no disfrutar al m\u00e1ximo de esta tierra cafetera, que tiene entre sus mayores virtudes, la calidez y servicialidad de sus habitantes,\u00a0\u00a0 Feliz Navidad y prospero a\u00f1o 2018 amigos lectores de Destino Caf\u00e9.\u00a0\u00a0 Adendo: A partir de este nuevo a\u00f1o, nuestra publicaci\u00f3n ser\u00e1 de circulaci\u00f3n trimestral con una renovada imagen y mayor utilidad informativa para todos ustedes. Mil gracias por la acogida que nos han\u00a0 brindado\u00a0 durante estos cerca de 6 a\u00f1os y medio de informaci\u00f3n que les hemos entregados durante 77 meses continuos.<\/p>\n

We become somewhat redundant when we write about our beautiful coffee landscape as a charming destination full of unique experiences for those who visit during this Christmas and New Year\u2019s season, and even during the whole year as we are mentioning a marvelous zone included by UNESCO on its Cultural Heritage of Mankind destination list 6 years ago thanks to its natural scenography embellished by mountains and valleys covered by a green shaded tapestry decorated with colorful fruits.
\nAnother feature which boosts the region as a world-class touristic destination spins around the tweets, color and beauty of our birds, just as we remembered on the 6th National Bird-Tourism Congress held in Manizales with over 500 participants who directly witnessed why the city is called world\u2019s avitourism \u201cmecca\u201d. All the departments included in UNESCO\u2019s declaratory, Caldas, Risaralda, Quind\u00edo and Valle del Cauca are bird paradises. With no doubt we highlight birdwatching as an unmissable for this Holiday season!
\nNext to our natural features we must add the luminous tapestries which adorn our charming towns these days: Quimbaya with its famed Candle and Lanterns festival; Salamina with its \u201cFiesta de la Luz\u201d; the National Coffee Park with its special December 7th and 8th celebrations; the Christmas lights emanating from the main capital cities as Manizales, Pereira and Armenia which undergo a healthy competition to attract visitors with its themed decorations and the embellishment of most rural zones also lighting their nights with Christmas decors that harmonize with house\u2019s facades and the exuberance of its green parks.
\nThe menu for tourists opens and is strengthen with other celebrations that allow the shaping of a festive Christmas cocktail such as the renowned Manizales\u2019 Fair and anniversary festivities in Salento and Dosquebradas.
\nThere is no excuse to make the most out of the coffee land, with includes the warmth and helpfulness of its inhabitants as it main virtues. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all Destino Caf\u00e9 readers!<\/p>\n
Note: beginning this new year our magazine will be issued every three months with a renovated image and with a more informative utility for all readers. Thanks for the great reception during these six and a half years of information we have given for 77 consecutive months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
