Medellin mayor Alonzo Salazar on Tuesday officially opened the new metro-cable line L from the Santo Domingo neighborhood, over the mountain, to Arvi Park.
Salazar was one of the first to enter the cable cars that take passengers to to forests east of Colombia's second largest city.
So far, the city's metrocable system was to connect the inhabitants of the city's poorest neighborhoods to the rest of the city, but was highly popular among tourists because of the spectacular view over the valley.
Line L was built mainly for touristic reasons as Park Arvi, now at the end of the line of the metro, offers numerous tourist attraction like horseback riding, visits to traditional flower growers and the possibility for guided hiking tours.
"The only thing we ask is that visitors do not pick moss or plants from the woods because this is a treasure we must leave for our children and grandchildren," the mayor said.
