Ciudad Perdida in Colombia is very nice (ONLY go by helicopter) And San Augustin. The ruins are VERY well preserved and you wont be running into a lot of tourists or a bunch of yahoos selling stuff (Like at the base of Macchu Picchu or at the Pyramids at Mexico City) Choose the less worn path. Always cooler stuff to see. Answered by Anyone but Obama in 2012! - Sat Jul 12 23:45:50 2008 How was Latin America both created and destroyed from 1492 to 1810? Q.
