A great place to come and hangout while in Popayán. Almost always very lively with many street vendors and people running around getting from point A to B. Good if you want somewhere to people watch

It's, maybe, the prettiest spot in Popayán, and you have some essentials right there: drugstore, money exchange (Western Union and Duque, at the right side of the clock-tower building), ATMs, some local fast food and mobile sellers, and free internet - if you are are lucky and it works. I like the fact that the logos and different companies names are in black or golden ON WHITE, keeping the town's emblematic colour in good order.

This relaxed park, surrounded by white governmental and religious buildings, offers plenty of shade due its tall trees and well preserved benches. The security authorities ensure that the park is safe both during the day as well as at night. Street vendors stand on its perimeter serving delis

The Iglesia de San Francisco is Popayan's largest colonial church and a must-visit attraction in the city. Situated in the heart of the old city, it boasts a lovely little square in front of it. The church holds historical significance as an earthquake in 1983 cracked open its ossuary, revealing six mummified bodies, with only two remaining today. Access to these mummies is restricted but visitors can inquire about any available tours at the entrance.

Restaurant
The Restaurante Italiano Y Pizzeria in Popayan is a highly recommended eatery, known for its delicious dishes made with fresh local ingredients. The Swiss owner personally prepares a mouthwatering pasta puttanesca, while the Eduardo Santos dessert is a unique and enjoyable treat. Despite being overwhelmed with customers, the skeleton crew manages to provide good service. Although there may be some delays in getting drinks and placing orders, the food arrives quickly and hot.
We were happy to find this gem of a restaurant. The food was fabulous, we went for the almorzar on day and then went back twice for dinner. We highly recommend the cheese fondue and the pepper steak, both were very flavorfull. My husband is from Switzerland and the owner is also Swiss so it made our visits there even more special. We may go back for a fourth time before we leave.
Connie L — Google review
Tourist trap. Food is way too expensive, even more than Rome downtown and not even close regarding flavor or ingredients. Even a simple beer it's overpriced. Service super slow and the place needs some care. I definitely DON'T RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL By the way. It's AMATRICIANA not Matricciana, some investigation about the food you want to sell it's the base.

It's a tourist trap. It's expensive for the area, incredibly noisy and overcrowded. And the food was mediocre. I had Lasagna bolognese and a pizza to go. The Lasagna was OK, but I'm not even sure it was prepared there. And the pizza was horrible, undercooked and doughy with not nearly enough sauce. Honestly it taste like gas station pizza

Delicious pasta puttanesca made directly by the Swiss owner and a nice/unique Eduardo Santos dessert which I tried for the first time. The skeleton crew running the place was overwhelmed with customers however and took quite some time to even bring us our drinks and eventually our order.

Excellent place. We went twice in as many days. First we had the cheese fondue, which was delicious and tasted exactly as it should, despite the distance from Switzerland. The second day we had pizza and the beef medallions in creamy mushroom sauce. Both portions were huge and made with great quality ingredients. Also, on both days the staff were lovely.

The food at this restaurant was the worst Italian food I have ever eaten in my life, and I have eaten a lot of Italian food. The ravioli tasted like soap. They were swimming in water, obviously not adequately drained. The service was lousy, as well. Don't waste your money.

Restaurante Taller de Cocina is a lovely and welcoming place, perfect for a family lunch. The food is delicious and served in generous portions, with options for soup or fruit, different types of meat, and juice. The staff takes pride in preparing each dish with immense love and dedication. The restaurant supports young trainees learning about food preparation and service, making it a great cause to support while enjoying an excellent meal.
Our lunch was delicious and healthy, served quickly, and very reasonably priced. The staff are almost all young trainees, learning to work in food preparation and service. Support a good cause with an excellent meal - and don't miss the wide variety of crafts on display/ for sale by other trainees.

the restaurant is huge and was packed when i visited. i liked the food and especially the fact my juice was unsweetened. staff was friendly but seemed unorganized . my dishes arrived in reverse order, then after waiting 8 minutes i had to get up and ask somebody to get any juice. also at the cashier instead of respecting a line they just serviced whoever they felt like. if you don't mind the service you can have a good meal at a fair price here.

We stopped here for lunch, they have the menu and also a menu del dia. They weren’t very busy when we arrived, and we ordered promptly. They brought out my soup and an appetizer that I guess came with my partners meal. Then the restaurant started filling up. Tables around us ordered, received their food and left at least 3 tables had their meal. No one stopped by to let us know what we ordered might take a little longer. After sitting there basically starving for an hour we put money on the table for our drinks since we couldn’t even flag a waiter. I would give it one star but initially it started out good the soup was good and the ají spicy. Wish they would have served us or let us know they were having an issue.

(Translated by Google) In recent years I have gone several times because the food is delicious, however, today, during an event in the restaurant for 47 people, I got a negative perception. The cost/quality ratio was bad. The portion was small, where a plate of 30 thousand pesos was composed of a lot of rice, some potatoes, salad, a small piece of breast and a small piece of cake, without soup. The owner of the place, who in previous years seemed very friendly, today was not treated anywhere close to what was expected. Who, when faced with the suggestions at the end of lunch, took a negative attitude. The most reprehensible thing is that two packed lunches were ordered, to the bad surprise that they were packed together in aluminum foil and in a bag, without disposable. I am a faithful believer that experiences are part of the growth of a place, and today, unfortunately, 47 of us have a negative image of the restaurant. (Original) En los últimos años he ido varias veces porque la comida es rica, sin embargo, hoy, durante la celebración de un evento en el restaurante para 47 personas, me llevo una percepción negativa. La relación costo/calidad fue mala. La porción estaba pequeña, donde un plato de 30 mil pesos estaba compuesto por bastante arroz, algunas papas, ensalada, un pedazo pequeño de pechuga y un trozo pequeño de torta, sin sopa. El dueño del lugar, quien en los años anteriores parecía muy amable, hoy no tuvo un trato ni cerca a lo esperado. Quien ante las sugerencias al final del almuerzo, tomó una actitud negativa. De lo más reprochable es que se pidieron dos almuerzos para llevar, para la mala sorpresa que fueron empacados juntos en papel aluminio y en bolsa, sin desechable. Soy fiel creyente de que las experiencias hacen parte del crecimiento de un lugar, y el día de hoy, lastimosamente 47 personas nos llevamos una imagen negativa del restaurante.

(Translated by Google) Sea and Jungle Night: An Unforgettable Evening at Qaray Cocina de Autor In the heart of historic Popayán, a city renowned for its colonial architecture and prestigious cuisine, Qaray Cocina de Autor restaurant emerges as a sanctuary of innovation and flavor. Here, a pleasant evening transforms into a sensorial journey to the depths of the Colombian Pacific, guided by the mastery of chef Mauricio Holguín. Our recent visit confirmed that Qaray is not just a restaurant; it's an experience that redefines Cauca cuisine. Upon arriving at its new location in the Hotel San Martín, one perceives an atmosphere of contemporary elegance and warmth. The ambiance is intimate and welcoming, with subtle decor that allows the true protagonists, the dishes, to shine. The attentive and knowledgeable service demonstrates from the first moment a passion for the story that each culinary creation seeks to tell. Qaray's "signature cuisine" approach manifests itself as a bold and respectful conversation between endemic ingredients and cutting-edge techniques. The menu pays homage to the Cauca region's bounty and, in particular, to the richness of the Pacific coast, a region of intense and exotic flavors. The evening began with the acclaimed "chontanadas," an appetizer that has become the house's signature. Small, crispy baskets, masterfully crafted with chontaduro (a pineapple fruit), serve as a receptacle for an exquisite blend that pays homage to the flavors of the rainforest. This was followed by chontaduro empanadas, a twist on a Colombian classic, surprising with their delicate balance between the fruit's sweetness and a savory, spiced filling. The main course was the "triple del Pacífico," a masterpiece that captures the essence of the region. What distinguishes Qaray is Chef Holguín's ability to reinterpret tradition without betraying it. His cuisine is a coherent and passionate narrative that speaks to the land, culture, and biodiversity. Each dish is a work of art, not only in its presentation but also in the story it tells about the origin of its ingredients. In short, an evening at Qaray Cocina de Autor is much more than just a simple dinner. It's an immersion in the culinary identity of the Colombian Pacific, presented with the elegance and creativity that only true signature cuisine can offer. It's a must-visit destination for those visiting Popayán seeking a memorable, delicious, and deeply authentic dining experience. (Original) Noche de Mar y Selva: Una Velada Inolvidable en Qaray Cocina de Autor En el corazón de la histórica Popayán, una ciudad célebre por su arquitectura colonial y su prestigiosa gastronomía, el restaurante Qaray Cocina de Autor emerge como un santuario de innovación y sabor. Aquí, una noche agradable se transforma en un viaje sensorial a las profundidades del Pacífico colombiano, guiado por la maestría del chef Mauricio Holguín. Nuestra reciente visita fue una confirmación de que Qaray no es solo un restaurante, es una experiencia que redefine la cocina caucana. Al llegar a su nueva ubicación en el Hotel San Martín, se percibe una atmósfera de elegancia contemporánea y calidez. El ambiente es íntimo y acogedor, con una decoración sutil que permite que los verdaderos protagonistas, los platos, brillen con luz propia. El servicio, atento y conocedor, demuestra desde el primer momento una pasión por la historia que cada creación culinaria busca contar. La propuesta de "cocina de autor" en Qaray se manifiesta como una conversación audaz y respetuosa entre los ingredientes endémicos y las técnicas de vanguardia. El menú es un homenaje a la despensa del Cauca y, en especial, a la riqueza del litoral Pacífico, una región de sabores intensos y exóticos. La velada comenzó con las aclamadas "chontanadas", una entrada que se ha convertido en la firma de la casa. Pequeñas y crujientes canastas, elaboradas magistralmente a base de chontaduro, sirven de receptáculo para una mezcla exquisita que rinde culto a los sabores de la selva húmeda. Le siguieron unas empanadas de chontaduro, una vuelta de tuerca a un clásico colombiano, que sorprenden por su delicado equilibrio entre el dulzor del fruto y un relleno sabroso y especiado. El plato fuerte fue la “triple del pacífico", una obra maestra que captura la esencia de la región. Lo que distingue a Qaray es la habilidad del chef Holguín para reinterpretar la tradición sin traicionarla. Su cocina es un relato coherente y apasionado que habla de territorio, cultura y biodiversidad. Cada plato es una pieza de arte, no solo en su presentación, sino en la historia que narra sobre el origen de sus ingredientes. En resumen, una noche en Qaray Cocina de Autor es mucho más que una simple cena. Es una inmersión en la identidad culinaria del Pacífico colombiano, presentada con la elegancia y la creatividad que solo la verdadera cocina de autor puede ofrecer.

(Translated by Google) An excellent address in the heart of Popayán. Located on the first floor of Caldas Square, opposite the clock tower. Original and high-quality home cooking. Very tender pipilongo steak with a perfect cocoa and pepper sauce. The chef speaks perfect French. The welcome is warm. (Original) Excellente adresse en plein coeur de Popayán.

Restaurant
The service at La Cosecha Parrillada - Centro was attentive and polite, even on a busy Friday night. Despite the crowd, the staff managed to provide fast service. They also generously offered complimentary salad with avocado, a variety of tasty dips, and free water with dessert. This restaurant is popular among both tourists and locals alike. One area for improvement is the Cordon Blue dish, which was slightly dry due to excessive breading on both the outside and inside of the chicken roll.
What a great experience!! Found this restaurant around the corner of our hotel and gave it a try. Certainly not disappointed: friendly waiters, great atmosphere and delicious food and drinks. We had a great evening and van only recommend this restaurant with five stars!!

Service: Catastrophic waited for ever for my drink and food as well as the check Food: In general the quality seamed well. The beef was good, but the fillet was soaked in a weird heavy mushroom sauce that killed all the flavor. Before ordering a steak make sure that it is grilled and not in a sauce. Also instead of my lemonade they gave me a Jugo which was 2x the price. Even though I told them twice when ordering. My soup was pretty good. Maybe the staff should have been more concentrated on serving and cooking instead of watching football.

We had the baby steak and the tomahawk. The taste of both was very good. We also had a large salad which was rich and tasty. The dinner is served with 4 additional fresh toppings that add flavor to the meet. The service was great. Highly recommend this restaurant.

The best place in town to taste the Payanés food flavor!! Mora Castilla is a place where you can find Popayán's typical food such as Empanaditas de Pipián, Tamales de Pipián, Carantanta, Salpicón between others. They have such a preparation style that takes this food to maximus tasty levels.

This place in particular is the fine example of colonial architecture through time and also a piece of History we want to share with tourists. The whole purpose of building this scenery from colonial times was to show Outsiders how proud We Are of keeping these Traditions and taking good care of them. We must remember that it Is a city that has been destroyed 4 times by 4 big earthquakes, every disaster takes its toll over the city taking away most of its cherish monuments. Anyway it is an attempt to preserve the memory of those buildings and of course, to Talk about the traditions and The people who lived un them.

Hotel Camino Real is a sophisticated hotel located in the heart of Popayan, Colombia. Housed in a 16th-century college building, it offers upmarket rooms and a restaurant with unexpectedly sophisticated cuisine. The hotel's location is perfect, just a short distance from Parque Caldas, making it convenient for exploring the city's history and culture. Guests praise the excellent service and comfortable beds, although some mention that the rooms and bathrooms are slightly outdated.
I'm an American , and I have to say this is the best hotel I've stayed at in all of Columbia. It's truly a 5 star experience. I paid 95000COP 38$USD and simply the best money I've ever spent. Make sure you get a room overlooking the square !

Philippe D — Google review
Came to the restaurant of Camino Real after reading about it in Lonely Planet and receiving a Rec from a Colombian friend in Cali. I’m short: incredibly Disappointing! The food wasn’t good, the service wasn’t good, and the ambiance was stuffy and outdated. The restaurant was empty except for three tables at 7:30pm on a Wednesday. The decor is going for a traditional/antique vibe with tons of interesting eclectic pieces serving as decorations (old irons, old posters, etc) but with the emptiness and stuffiness of the staff, it didn’t feel charming, but instead fell flat and outdated. We ordered two different menus, each with a price of 60,000 COP. This was my most expensive meal in my three weeks in Colombia, and the worst. My courses included: the shrimp ravioli, asparagus salad, palate cleansing lulo “sherbet”, beef in wine sauce, cheese plate, and apple dessert. I don’t eat much seafood, but the ravioli were actually made from the shrimp being butterflies open and stuffed with mint/onion and the plate was smothered with a butter sauce. The shrimp tasted tough and over cooked and I couldn’t taste anything but butter. The asparagus salad was a bed of ice berg, pickled white asparagus and an acidic unknown dressing. I do not like pickled asparagus or white asparagus very much, so it was a miss for me and flavorless. My dining partner’s second course was a trout that tasted very fishy and was underwhelming as well. My course didn’t seem up to par with her “main dish” next course, even though her tasting menu was the same price. The beef with wine sauce was nice, though the meat was a bit undercooked. I ordered medium rAre, but my meat was quite red throughout. The same was true for the pepper steak dish ordered by my dining companion. The steak was served with a side salad - the same iceberg lettuce, acidic unknown dressing, mango and green beans. Bland and boring. The other side was a small boiled potato with some herbs on top. Again, bland and boring. Our desserts were no less disappointing. My dining companion ordered the Eduardo santos, a traditional dessert made with condensed milk and various fruits. It came out frozen like a Mexican-style popsicle and was difficult to eat, but not bad. The apple dessert I ordered was not only disgustingly sweet (it is made with puff pastries from the region that are coated intensely in sugar), but the apples that came on top didn’t even have the skin cut off and were flavored with a cinnamon that tasted like red hots. Not what you want in a dessert! The restaurant didn’t offer us a drink Menú - the waiter said it “isn’t complete”. They also don’t serve wine by the glass. At a restaurant that has won culinary awards?! Strange. Finally, our waiter was attentive, but never once asked us if we were enjoying our meal or how the food was. Very strange since he was peering at us in the empty restaurant for the majority of our meal. Overall, I recommend you don’t waste your money here. You can eat so much better in Colombia and for much cheaper. There’s a reason they won their culinary awards 30 years ago. Avoid!

One of the traditional dining spots in Popayan, located in the heart of the colonial side of town it's a good place to eat if you are up for more formal dining. Ambiance is lacking and service is better than in most restaurants in town but far from top tier standards in Cali, Bogota or Medellin. I ordered the Corvina with the Pacific style sauce which includes chontaduro and coconut. Portions are generous, flavor was great, however presentation poor. Food takes a long time to prepare, larger groups can complicate things.

(Translated by Google) My experience here has been positive. My favorite appetizer is the California "chicharrón ceviche." For entrees, I recommend the pork rind, although its size could be discussed. The Texas sandwich has a spectacular combination of flavors, and the Illegal is a recommendation for those who like burgers that go beyond meat, lettuce, and tomato. I mention these dishes because they're the ones I've ordered on more than three occasions. However, the skewers, appetizers, and Italian sodas all have their own special touch. The ambiance of the place lends itself to different celebrations or types of gatherings: for couples, with family, with friends, and even alone. As for takeout, we waited a bit and our order went smoothly, whether we enjoyed it on-site or at home; it's an excellent choice. (Original) Mi experiencia en el lugar ha sido positiva, mis favoritos de entrada es el california “ceviche de chicharrón”; en fuertes recomiendo la porcheta aunque su tamaño podríamos discutirlo; el sándwich texas tiene una combinación de sabores espectacular y la ilegal es una recomendación para los que les gustan las hamburguesas que van más allá de carne, lechuga y tomate. Hablo de estos platos porque son los que he pedido en más de tres ocasiones; aun así las brochetas, picadas y sodas italianas tienen su toque especial. El ambiente del lugar se presta para diferentes celebraciones o tipos de reuniones, en pareja, en familia, con amigos e incluso en solitario. En cuánto a domicilios, hemos esperado un poco y nuestro pedido no ha tenido problemas, ya sea para disfrutar en el lugar o en casa; es una excelente elección.

Pita is an excellent establishment that provides a wide selection of vegan and vegetarian dishes, such as the delectable Baba Ganoush and Hummus sandwich. The proprietor is also incredibly amiable. Despite a negative portrayal in the Lonely Planet guide, my spouse and I visited twice during our stay in Popayan and were thoroughly impressed on both occasions. This eatery offers reasonably priced yet scrumptious fare, making it a standout choice for those seeking something unique.
Our meals were fabulous, very tasty. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The decor is fun to look at, interesting stuff everywhere. Certainly glad we stumbled across this gem.

I would definitely recommend this place for both vegetarians and meat eaters.

Absolutely amazing food. We’re vegetarian so it was great for us to find so many options for us to eat. There are flavours in these pitas that are unexpected, but work so well together such as rosemary with falafel. Many areas of the restaurant to explore. There is even a balcony to eat on which is where we decided to dine. They also have a brand new pool table that is a joy to play on. Staff extremely welcoming. Best place we’ve been to in Popayan.

One of the highlights is definitely the arcade; it was my first experience at one and I had an absolute blast!
I love the fact that you can sit and relax on any of the sofas in the third floor.

This place was constructed far from the main part of the city. The bus service to get here is poor. Many empty storefronts inside. A waste of time to go here when Central Commerical Campanario is close to the center of Popayan and has so much more. I predict that the place will go bankrupt.

Very few reasons to visit here at the moment. Still basically a construction site with just a few stores open and the stores are ALL very expensive. Better to wait unti La 14 opens.

(Translated by Google) By the Guillermo Valencia National Museum, this mansion was built in the 18th century by the Payan architect Marcelino Pérez de Arroyo evoking the neoclassical style. Initially it belonged to the Angulo family, and later to the Angulo Diago family who hosted Baron Alexander von Humboldt in 1801. In 1906 this house was acquired by Don Ignacio Muñoz who gave it to his daughter Josefina Muñoz, wife of the poet Guillermo Valencia. In 1943, following the death of Maestro Valencia, it was acquired by the Nation to honor his memory and was declared a national monument. I only share photos of the exteriors and corridors since it is not allowed to photograph the rooms and their museum elements. (Original) Por el Museo Nacional Guillermo Valencia, esta casona fue construida en el siglo XVIII por el arquitecto payanés Marcelino Pérez de Arroyo evocando el estilo neoclásico. Inicialmente perteneció a la familia Angulo, y posteriormente a la familia Angulo Diago que alojó al Barón Alexander von Humboldt en 1801. En 1906 esta casa fue adquirida por don Ignacio Muñoz quién la obsequia a su hija Josefina Muñoz esposa del poeta Guillermo Valencia. En 1943 a raíz de la muerte del maestro Valencia, fue adquirida por la Nación para honrar su memoria y fue declarada como monumento nacional. Comparto solo fotos de los exteriores y corredores ya que no es permitido fotografiar las habitaciones y sus elementos museísticos.

The Museo Arquidiocesano de Arte Religioso, located in the heart of Popayan's historic center, is a captivating attraction for those interested in delving into the city's cultural and religious heritage. Housed in a beautifully restored colonial building, this museum boasts an impressive collection of religious art and artifacts spanning centuries. Visitors can explore a wide array of colonial religious art and immerse themselves in the history and treasures of the region.
Quite a bit of really great colonial religious art here. If you are into religious art or Latin American colonial history, then I really recommend you visit this place. The price included a guided tour for me but I'm not sure if this is always the case or if I got lucky as I was the only person there!

I was given a leaflet, and no further explanation, not very helpful when everything is in Spanish. In other places, the attendants tried to explain at least a little bit in a Spanish I can understand. There was also a question of why I had to pay 8000 pesos when the ticket said 4000. I was told this is a student ticket only. But there was no ticket for 8000 and I was not issued a receipt. In other places when they charged me double they gave me two tickets. I assume that it is all correct but it felt weird. The exhibit is the usual collection of religious art that can be soon all over this part of the world.

I didn't really enjoyed it alghough I had a private guide because I was the first visitor that morning. It was hard to fully enjoy the experience when your guide is trying to convince you that Jesus is our saviour and that the religion came to America to save them (from their current "ignorance" or "disbelief").

(Translated by Google) Guided tour in each room but at a running pace. The guides vomit out their speech in one go, without breathing or giving visitors time to look at the works in detail. It looks like they want to get rid of the visitors as quickly as possible. $8000 entrance to the museum and $8000 for access to another room. Honestly, in these conditions, the visit is not worth it. (Original) Visite guidée dans chaque pièce mais au pas de course. Les guides vomissent leur discours d'une seule traite, sans respirer ni laisser le temps aux visiteurs de regarder les œuvres en détail. On dirait qu'ils veulent se débarrasser des visiteurs au plus vite. $8000 entrée du musée et $8000 pour accès à une autre pièce. Sincèrement, dans ces conditions, la visite ne vaut pas le coup.

The Natural History Museum University of Cauca, located in Popayan, is a must-visit for art and history enthusiasts. It houses the Museo Negret, showcasing the works of modernist sculptor Edgar Negret, as well as the Museo Iberoamericano de Arte Moderno which displays Negret's private collection of Picasso's works and other significant pieces from Spain and Latin America. The museum also offers insight into the region's history since its conquest in 1537.
Great fun. Good selection of animals and insects to view. You can opt for a guide, but only in Spanish. Nice way to spend an hour in Popayan. 8000COP for entrance.

Good museum. Takes about 2 hours to get round relatively thoroughly. It's not entirely focused on the region though as some fauna if from North America, Africa and Asia. Still, I enjoyed it and left with a sense of how vulnerable many animal species are.

(Translated by Google) We ordered the special of the day which was a very delicious seafood rice, with a fish consommé that they changed for a chicken one🤦. The place is very full and spacious, but when they offer you the menu they practically force you to order the special, since they don't even have time to look when they are already bombarding you with information about the dishes of the day. The waitress never left or gave us time to think and she seemed busy, the taste was good, the portion was a little small, the attention was 3/5. Would I go back? Maybe not.

When you find yourself in Popayán, make sure to stop by Cafeteria La Fresa, a charming little spot that embodies the essence of local cuisine. This unpretentious eatery is famous for its empanadas de Pipian—crispy fried turnovers filled with a delightful mix of corn and potatoes. Each bite is enhanced by their signature aji de mani, a mildly spicy peanut sauce that perfectly complements the flavors.
5 empanadas for 2.000. Delicious!

(Translated by Google) They are perhaps the most popular in the city. They have been around for many years. They have greatly improved the service, which is something that was always complained about (and was almost part of the tradition). They are located in the historic center. The addictive pipian empanadas and the Champus are highly recommended. (Original) Son tal vez las más populares de la ciudad. Llevan muchísimos años. Han mejorado mucho la atención que es algo de lo que siempre se tenía queja (y casi que hacía parte de la tradición). Están ubicados en el centro histórico. Súper recomendadas las adictivas empanadas de pipian y el Champus.

(Translated by Google) La Fresa is a traditional place in Popayán where they sell the typical pipián empanadas with peanut chili, from the Caucasian gastronomic tradition.

Museo Casa Mosquera is another museum worth visiting, showcasing the life and influence of General Tomas Cipriano de Mosquera, a four-time president of Colombia. Housed in an exquisite 18th-century building, it offers a wealth of information on his role in shaping the country.

Tequilas is a Mexican restaurant in Chicago known for its authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine. The owner, who hails from Guerrero state, takes pride in serving traditional dishes such as chicken enchiladas in mole sauce. The mole sauce is described as being sweeter with less cocoa compared to the mole poblano, providing just the right amount of spiciness. Visitors have also enjoyed other menu items like quesadillas and complimented the friendly staff and excellent service.

Gauthier M — Google review
I live in Chicago where there's a large Mexican population, so I know what good Mexican food is. This place has it. I ordered the (chicken) enchiladas in mole sauce. The owner is from Guerrero state and explained to me that it was Guerrero style mole and is a bit sweeter and has less cocoa than the mole poblano sauce that I was used to. It was very good and just the right picante - I was wiping sweat off my forehead before I finished the first of my three enchiladas. I was surprised that the meal didn't come with any rice or beans, just a small serving of coleslaw. But the enchiladas were huge and stuffed with chicken breast, so I left very full. It was a great meal at a reasonable price with great service. If you aren't into spicy hot food, some of the other dishes like the burritos aren't that hot. You just need to ask how picante the dish is.

Highly recommend coming here to try traditional Popayan foods while you’re in town! We tried: -champu (maize drink made with lulo, pineapple, Panela) it was sweet with the taste of cinnamon. The cinnamon is a bit overwhelming. if you don’t love cinnamon, choose one of the other drinks! -Lulada: made with chunks of lulo fruit, which looks similar to a tomato with a green/orange color. Very tart but highly recommend! -salpicón payanese: the best local drink! BlackBerry, lulo and guanábano (white tropical fruit). Delicious and sweet! The small sizes for drinks are tiny, so go for the grande! Empanadas de pipian: local empanadas made with potato paste and peanuts. They come in an order of 10 and you’re going to want more than one! It sounds like a lot, but they are tiny for empanadas. They came out hot and fresh. It was hard to stop eating them! Served with yummy peanut sauce. Tamale de pipian: made with corn and the same potato/peanut paste. Served with peanut sauce. It was okay, but the empanadas are definitely better.

This iconic site is a must-visit for those interested in understanding Colombian history and the city's influence on the state constitution.
This place shows the Popayan heroes to the world. The place is a little small. Important names in the Popayan history can be found here. It could be good if a tour guide tells the history to the visitors, so we can know with details the history of this beautiful ground.

(Translated by Google) The Pantheon of the Heroes is located in the historic center of Popayán on 7th Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets. A very small place, steeped in history and architecture, where the ossuaries of our heroes rest. Admission is free, and the tour is quick due to its small size, taking approximately less than half an hour. A good place for everyone to visit. (Original) El Panteón de los próceres está ubicado en el centro histórico de Popayán en la carrera 7 entre calles tercera y cuarta.

Get Up and Go Colombia Free Walking Tour

4.7
(112)
If you're looking to immerse yourself in the rich history of Popayan, the "Get Up and Go Colombia Free Walking Tour" is an absolute must. This engaging tour, led by knowledgeable guides like Patricia and Miguel, takes you through the city's stunning colonial architecture and significant landmarks that you might overlook on your own. Over approximately two hours, you'll explore hidden gems such as the UNESCO-listed Holy Week Museum and the beautiful University of Cauca's interior.
We really enjoyed our tour and got to know lots of facts about the city that we wouldn't have found out otherwise. You also get to go into some buildings you could never visit by yourself. So we 100 percent recommend joining this tour!! An extra bonus is that the tip money is going to a great organisation with a nice purpose.

Really interesting walking tour with Patricia. Over about 2 hours she showed us many interesting places that we probably would not have visited on our own, like the UNESCO listed Holy Week Museum, Colonial and Baroque buildings of historical families, the beautiful interior of the University of Cauca, and many other places. Patricia had a lot of great stories and had a deep knowledge of the history of Popayan. We highly recommend doing a walking tour with Get Up and Go Colombia. Proceeds also go to important peace and education projects.

Miguel gave us a really interesting tour around the beautiful ciudad Blanca! He told nice, short stories and we saw a lot of places. Would really recommend going with them to get to know the city. One thing though. We wanted to do the tour on Tuesday and we registered through their website the day before. When we waited in front of the church the next day, nobody showed up. Afterwards, during the night, we got an email which explained why the tour hadn’t taken place. It would have been nice to get this beforehand, so we weren’t waiting for nobody.. For us it was a big bummer to not be able to do the tour that day.

The Clock Tower, also known as "Popayan's nostril," is a historic landmark dating back to the 17th century. Its iconic clock, installed in 1737, features an intriguing detail - the number 4 is represented by four bars (IIII) instead of the typical IV.

Super Olafo Centro is a charming little eatery that packs a punch with its delicious offerings. Known for its delightful pizzas, this cozy spot serves up personal-sized pies topped generously, making them perfect for solo diners. The house salad, reminiscent of Germany's layered salad, is another highlight that many guests find irresistible and often reorder. While the menu boasts an array of options including hamburgers and pantacones, some patrons note that the pizza crust can be on the sweeter side.

(Translated by Google) Excellent flavor. If you're offered cream or fruit, I 100% recommend going for the cream; it's delicious. A relaxed atmosphere for conversation, and the daily lunch includes a starter, main course, juice, and dessert. (Original) Excelente sabor, si te ofrecen alguna crema o fruta te recomiendo 100% irte por la crema, deliciosa. Ambiente tranquilo para hablar y el almuerzo del día tiene entrada, plato fuerte, jugo y postre.
