High up in the mountains of Tierradentro lies the village of San Andrés de Pisimbalá. Not just a jumping off point for exploring the underground tombs, it is also a pleasant town with a remarkable thatched roof church.
The next morning, we wake up to low clouds above us. We have a great view over Inzá from the flat roof of our hotel, and after a ride in a shared taxi, we arrive in San Andrés de Pisimbalá. One of the passengers has been enthusiastically talking to us during the ride, and points us to the famous 200-year old church of the mountain town. A short walk up the hill takes us to the church. Even though I know it had a thatched roof, I am surprised by its size, and the look that I had imagined differently. A very long building, not reminding very much of a church, apart from the tiny bell-tower. The architecture is completely indigenous. Unfortunately, the door is closed, but we learn that it is supposed to be opened soon.
