    The city of Tunja is a paradise to be discovered. The weather is awesome 14-18 degrees Centigrades, people are warm and welcoming.

    Boyacá is probably the safest department in Colombia for sure. If you are still around, you should go to Paipa. The hot springs are outstanding.

      Yes especially if you are looking for a cooler but not too cold environment. Plus way more affordable than other cities!

    My soul is not right outside of Colombia so your content makes me happy and then I want to come back sooner. The music is good and live sound as well. I know how YT likes to copyright but for most my videos they don’t with Spanish music but depends if its back back ground or if it’s taking over the talking. Sometimes I upload just to see what happens. You can always re upload if they copyright it. Nice video Sara!

    Nice video. Thanks for the history lesson! Did some further reading but definitely need to learn more about the region and its native inhabitants.
    Also was able to learn names of bakery goods and information about the basket weaving culture. The basket material gaita is a woody bamboo in the grass family found in Mesoamerica. I couldn’t find a direct translation for the plant (so had to look up its Latin name) but it can mean bagpipes and flute which makes sense. It would have been nice to see some of the prices of the baskets! The signs help add to my Spanish vocab. You can see I tend to get into the weeds or maybe I should say gaita!
    The large sheet or tarp in the square at ~15 that said Juego de Oca (Game of the Goose) to raise awareness of violence was interesting.
    Thanks for pausing at some signs! Would have been great to also see the “territorio” sign with map of the square and Church of San Ignacio sign…
    Music or street sounds? Each gives a different vibe for me. Music focuses on the visual background while street sounds more on atmosphere and ambient sounds, even catching some snatches of conversation. Other possibilities are to add snippets of conversions with vendors with a brief recap in English if you don’t want the work of adding subtitles.

    TUNJA it's a beautiful city with great architecture, nice weather (not too hot), great cuisine, amazing surroundings, and the best people.
    Tunja has been named "COLOMBIAN'S UNIVERSITY CITY" and it is also the SAFEST capital city in Colombia, and indeed, BOYACÁ is like "an oasis" within thr country; it's also my favorite region in the country.
    Enjoy Tunja and Boyacá, Sara!!🇸🇷💯🇸🇷💯🇸🇷💯🇸🇷💯🇸🇷💯🇸🇷

    To answer your question, street sounds without music is more interesting.

    One particularity of boyacences, myself included, is that people in general do not like to have debts and as a result, there are no big industrial proyects in the area...and the banks have to move money from deposits to other parts of the counry as soon as they are made.

    Boyaca is the best of Colombia culturally in my opinion and I live here. It also has some beautiful scenery too. Artifacts like those inside La Casa Del Fundador y El Escribano Del Rey are like a trip to Europe.
