Armenia is the capital of Quindío, a department in Colombia. Armenia is a mid-size city located between Bogotá, Medellín and Cali, the 3 largest Colombian cities. The city’s area code for phone calls is 67. It’s one of the three that forms the Colombian Coffee-Growers Axis. Despite Armenia’s quickly expanding economy at the time, the means of transportation were still very limited. The main form of transporting people and merchandise was by mule, due to the mountainous terrain surrounding the city. It was not until the construction of the first asphalt road in 1927 to Zarzal in the Cauca river valley that transportation was improved.
Nowadays, the city combines its contemporary development with the all traditional ways of its forefathers’ heritage, like the historic Liberator Pathway, the path used by Colombia’s 19th century Liberator Simon Bolívar to move his army between the west of the country and Santa Fe de Bogotá during his successful independence campaign from Spain, currently one of the top two tourist destinations in Colombia.
