Workation in Bucaramanga: the essentials
More than 160 parks earned the capital of Santander the nickname La Ciudad de los Parques. Bucaramanga has about 613,000 people, or 1.3 million with Floridablanca, Girón and Piedecuesta, and Ecopetrol's Colombian Petroleum Institute is based here. At about 960 m it is warm without the heat of the coast, and the outdoors is close: paragliding at Ruitoque, the Chicamocha canyon, rafting around San Gil and the heritage town of Barichara. Cabecera is the neighbourhood for restaurants. Tourists are few and nightlife is modest, so you mostly live among locals. Palonegro airport sits on a plateau about 7 km out.
