Paseo Cayala

- Gran Salon Azaria, Iglesia Santa María Reina de la Familia

Paseo Cayala is an outdoor shopping center and residential area that was built like a historical Spanish town, though was built as late as in 2013. It is situated in the mountains in the southeast part of the city, close to the slum in Zona 16. The complex is car-free and is complete with stores, restaurants, cafés, roads, upper floor apartments and a church, all in heritage style! Paseo Cayala is very classy, safe and all buildings are white there. Here you find a church, Iglesia Santa Maria Reina de la Familia and the Gran Salon Azaria, a well as a statue of Pope John Paul II, a merry-go-round, large fountains, a Starbucks and other cafés, fancy boutiques, concerts, white colonnade arcades and luxury apartments on the upper floors. In the middle there is a pedestrian promenade. The entrance to the underground parking garage was built like a vintage subway entrance. Paseo Cayala is a haven for the wealthy in the middle of this troubled city, free from crime and traffic. The security guards carry concealed guns instead of the open rifles you see in other places. On top of that it is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

Since the complex is situated on a hill there are great views of the city. There are plans to expand the complex, making it even more like a city within the city. After dark it is especially beautiful with its illuminated lights. It might be expensive and artificial compared to the rest of the city, but is still worth a visit.
