We will meet at 2 pm in the central Plaza de Nariño to begin our tour of Pasto's iconic sites, known as the 'Surprise City'. You will discover the reason behind this nickname during the tour.

After learning about Pasto's history at Plaza de Nariño, we will visit its 25 churches, which led to its recognition as the 'Theological City of Colombia'.
