Cali, in southwestern Colombia, is famous as the world capital of salsa. It is a warm, energetic city of music and dance, with a colonial hillside neighborhood and a river running through its center.
The city
The San Antonio neighborhood has colonial houses, a hilltop church and views over the city. The Cali River boulevard is lined with parks and sculptures, including the famous Cat of the River. Cristo Rey stands on a hill above the city.
Salsa
Salsa clubs and dance schools are everywhere, and the World Salsa Festival and the Feria de Cali in December fill the city with music.
