The biggest knife (machete) in the wolrd in Santa Rosa de Cabal, Colombia

Santa Rosa de Cabal is a small city located 30 minutes away from Pereira. This town is not only famous by the chorizo that is great but also is known for different places, one of them is "El parque del machete" or Machete park

El parque del machete

This place is located in the urban part o the town, in this place we have the biggest machetes in the world, their length is 4 meters (13,12 ft) and their weight is approximately 400 pounds.

This is a memory about our ancestors, one of the reasons is because they needed to open or make countryroads to colonize, therefore the machete was so important for the foundation of cities like Santa Rosa de Cabal.

When you visit the park, you will be able to appreciate typical houses, handcrafts, a chiva (typical bus) and there are times that you will be able to listen our music, also you can drink a coffee cup and spend a great time with your friends and family.
