Armenia is the capital of Quindio, a small department in the heart of Colombia's Coffee Cultural Landscape - a region of green hills, coffee farms and colourful towns that UNESCO inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 2011. The city itself is a modern, workaday provincial capital, but its real value is as the gateway to the coffee triangle (Eje Cafetero): within easy reach are the celebrated Cocora Valley with its towering wax palms - Colombia's national tree - and the picture-perfect towns of Salento and Filandia, famous for their painted balconies and traditional Antioquian architecture. Coffee-farm visits, mountain scenery and the Los Nevados highlands round out the appeal. El Eden airport (AXM) connects Armenia to Bogota and beyond, and the region's mild, spring-like climate makes it a year-round destination, with drier spells around December to February and July to August.
