This family's experience:

Activities: We visited the cultural center La Casa Encendida with its exhibitions, library, and café. The rooftop garden became a perfect playground for Nelly, and we cooled down with smoothies

Highlights: Nelly loved the rooftop garden and didn't want to leave! We also met other parents with their children in the cozy café, which was a nice surprise. The smoothies were delicious ✨
