COLOMBIAN CULTURAL TRADITIONS
Colombian handicrafts are very popular around the world. Arhuaco
Native Indians of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta make shoulder
bags, people from the plains of the department of Córdoba make
Sombrero Vueltiao, in San Jacinto (Bolívar) people make hammocks,
in Pasto people create figures decorated with barniz, and people
from Ráquira create pottery. Those are just a few examples of
handicrafts that we know for their distinct style and beauty.
Colombia has a wide range of cultural expressions in music, art and
literature, which people admire in museums, art galleries, libraries
and public spaces.
In every region, people celebrate and express the joyfulness and
diversity of Colombian. Colombians celebrate several fairs, carnivals
and cultural festivals including the following:

year;
