GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Cali is a Colombian city in the Valle del Cauca department, southwest of Bogotá. It is known for salsa dancing (there are many clubs in the suburb of Juanchito). In Cali’s oldest quarter, the neoclassical San Pedro Cathedral houses paintings of the Quito School. Nearby is the 18th- and 19th-century San Francisco Religious Complex. La Merced Chapel is where the first mass was held after Cali was founded in 1536.
