Culture

A cornerstone of Medellín's Feria de las Flores, Fincas Silleteras offer an immersive journey into the heart of silletero culture. Located primarily in the scenic Santa Elena area, these farms showcase the intricate art of crafting silletas—elaborate floral arrangements traditionally carried on the backs of artisans. Visitors can witness the cultivation of flowers, observe live demonstrations of silleta creation, and engage with silleteros whose families have preserved this ancestral craft for generations.
