England vs. Colombia

England has a huge culture that combines elements both old and new as well as Colombia but the English Heriage is a governmental body with many historic sites, in fact I can say that all England is a place of history and art, each building, museum, library contains the finest collection of things in the world, in Colombia although we have museums are not as important, for me the most important museums are the golden museum, the house of coins and the museum of Botero.
About the people I can say that the English have played a significant role in the development of the arts, sciences and architecture, for example they have played an important role in the advance of Western architecture and they do magnificent churches and cathedrals. English architects have contributed to a number of different styles over the centuries, including Tudor architecture, English Baroque the Georgian style and Victorian movements such as Gothic Revival. For me the two best architects of England in this moment are Norman Foster and Richard Rogers but even though their very intelligent the people is very reserved, distant, cold, indifferent, they don’t have flavor in their souls and they don’t have much rhythm to dance.
In Colombia we haven’t played an important role in science or in architecture but we have very good architects like Pedro Gomez and Fernando Mazuera and we have the greatest cathedral of all that is the Cathedral of salt that is considered a jewel in modern architecture, because it was an old mine of salt and they do the cathedral inside it with 22m tall and it has a space for 8000 people.
About the people I can say that we are very open, happy, joyful, when ever some one arrive to Colombia they fell at home because of our warm.
We also love to dance, we carry the rhythm in our souls that’s why we party so much and have many carnivals and fairs.
Also I want to rescue the greatest thing we have and is the music, we have Clasic music, rock and pop like the English but we have music that gets to your heart and body, for all tastes like the Cumbia, Vallenato, Porro, Bambuco, Salsa, currulao, Chapeta, Reggueton and musica llanera.
