View from Santo Domingo in SW direction up the Aburrá Valley. The downtown of Medellín (La Candelaria) with the Centro Coltejer and various other modern skyscrapers prominently appears in the foreground of the scene, whereas Sabaneta is shown in the background. Due to its mild climate all year round, Medellín is known as the city of eternal spring whereas the national capital Bogotá, located at higher elevation, is just called the "fridge".
