Visit the Estadio Atanasio Girardot sports complex, home to Atletico Nacional and Independiente Medellin and the centerpiece of the city's 2010-renovated sporting district. The 40,000-seat stadium hosted matches during the 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup and sits within a larger complex featuring swimming, athletics, and basketball facilities.
Attraction
Museo Atlético Nacional
Atlético Nacional's club museum within the Atanasio Girardot complex celebrates the green and white's two Copa Libertadores titles and extensive domestic trophy haul. The exhibit honouring the legendary 1989 Copa win under Francisco Maturana is particularly moving. Colombia's most successful club has produced dozens of international players whose shirts and memorabilia fill the museum's displays.
Attraction
Parque Berrío Fan Gathering
The central metro plaza of Medellín becomes a massive fan gathering point on match days, with supporters streaming through from every neighborhood on the efficient metro network. The plaza's public screens during major Colombia national team matches draw enormous crowds. Arepas and fruit vendors do their best business here on football Saturdays.
Attraction
Plaza Botero Sculpture Walk
Fernando Botero's 23 monumental bronze sculptures in the plaza adjacent to the Museum of Antioquia make the most photographed pre-match stop in Medellín. Fans pose with the rotund figures in team scarves before making their way to the stadium. The connection between Medellín's world-class cultural identity and its football passion is beautifully expressed here.
