The one-time home of notorious Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar has been transformed into a theme park—and, says the Daily Mail, it’s “an attraction not to be sniffed at.” Visitors to the park can view Escobar’s private bullfighting ring, a derelict hovercraft, and a plane once used for smuggling drugs. Can’t make it to Colombia anytime soon? The Daily Mail story includes an array of photos. (Via @DavidGrann)

Wow, what an intriguing tourist attraction. I’ve visited Colombia on a couple of occasions and having read this now want to go back again. Thanks for the info, brought back some great memories.

That review on Escobarland is quite intriguing. Columbia has been transformed into something better! I myself want to visit the place and make some fun memories there!

Never been to Columbia. Based on the review, I will surely be at Escorbarland one of these days.

That would be a very positive way of converting bad memories for a place or area. I think I would do the same for some dump sites in our place

Citizens there at Escobarland must have unity and be goal oriented. They turned this place into something better.

Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar was making so much money, he spent $2,500 a month on rubber bands to bundle up his stacks of cash.
