Medellin has made massive progress in both public safety and tourism over the past decades. However, as the city slowly becomes a recognizable tourist destination, there are plenty of places a traveler should not wander either for his own safety or to avoid wasting his time.
Some of these places are the stomping grounds of prostitutes and drug addicts. The west of Medellin has been disputed by illegal armed groups throughout Colombia’s armed conflict, these are some of the neighborhoods that you should avoid San Javier, Belen and Robledo.
