Streets of... Valle de Leyva, Colombia

Villa de Leyva is one of the finest colonial villages of Colombia, located in a high altitude valley at 2,144 m altitude in the Boyacá Department.

It was declared a National Monument in December 17, 1954 to preserve its architecture, but the valley itself is worth such honor.
