Manizales Population - 400,000. Currency – Peso (COP). Language - Spanish. Time Zone - GMT - 5 hours Airport - La Nubia Santaguida airport (MZL) Best Time to go – All year round destination. Manizales was founded in 1849 and, much like nearby Pereira, owes a lot of its development to the coffee industry. An earthquake in 1878 took its toll on several of the older buildings but there is still much to see. The Cathedral de Manizales is a must for lovers of architecture and there are several festivals throughout the year. The nightlife is busy and vibrant not least due to the fact there there are several universities in the city and some 30,000 students. Other places of interest include 'The Gold museum of the Banco de la Republica,' 'The Museum of Art,' 'The Botanical Garden' and 'The Natural Museum of History.'
Manizales hotels and accomodation including Las Colinas Estelar Hotel Manizales.
This 5 star hotel has 65 room, and 8 meeting rooms, conference rooms and banqueting facilities and 'Cafe Colombia' offers, as you would expect, the finest in Colombian coffee.
