50 photos of Villa de Leyva: Finest Colonial Villages of Colombia
Villa de Leyva, Colombia is a colonial-era town a short distance from Bogotá, and a popular day trip northeast of the capital.Villa de Leyva is considered one of the finest colonial villages of Colombia, and was declared a National Monument on December 17, 1954 to preserve its architecture. It's also a popular weekend excursion, so during the weekend, the streets, restaurants, places to stay and shops are crowded. There are some well organized art museums around the centre of town and the charming Parroquial de Villa de Leyva with the magnificent mountain backdrop makes the town a really attractive destination.
