Cali, Colombia's third-largest city with roughly two million inhabitants, is noted more for its laid-back atmosphere and its Salsa scene than its tourist attractions. Cali is the capital of the department of Valle del Cauca , one of the most prosperous regions of the country and home of large sugar mills and numerous industries.

Located in the Cauca River Valley, Cali is also known throughout Colombia and the rest of South America for its Salsa music and for having the most beautiful women in the country.

At the end of the year, between December 25 and January 1st, the Feria De Cali (Cali Fair) takes place, with all kinds of street festivities. At this time of year the Bullfighting Festival, the most important event of its kind in the country takes place in the Plaza Monumental de Caņaveralejo.

Just 20 miles east from Cali is Palmira a nice and industrious town that is worth a visit.

If you like Salsa, Cumbia, Tropical, Merengue and Bachata rhythms, you don't need a name of any specific bar or discoteque. Just go to La Sexta Avenida (Sixth Avenue). Go at about 8:00 p.m. and have dinner. Then go to one of many open air places to sit and watch the crowd go by. Each spot has a dance floor, so dancing is never too far away.

There are also many malls that are partially roofed, with many bars in the couryard inside. Don't forget, in Cali, the weather always hovers around "perfect" so all eateries and bars have you sitting in the wonderful open air. The malls that I visited were "Chipchape", "Palmetto Plaza", "Unicentro", "Jardin Plaza" and one more whose name I don't recall. All are safe and beautiful. All offer wonderful shops and many eateries and bars. The liquor, and music, is always flowing.

Kukaramakara

This is a place for middle and upper class Calenos and Calenas. They have live Spanish pop music from a very good house band. Call a day in advance to reserve a table for a group of friends. Drinks are bought by the bottle and the servers will bring buckets of ice, jugs of orange juice, etc. The place can get rather roudy with everybody singing along, and dancing on the seats or tables is common. This place is quite packed but a lot of fun with a group of people.
