Coffee Landscape on the Heritage List

The Coffee Cultural Landscape around Pereira was listed by UNESCO in 2011 — not for a monument but for the whole pattern of smallholder coffee farming on steep Andean slopes, worked by hand because machines cannot climb them.

The clock: Pereira keeps UTC−5. Colombia's coffee is picked selectively, bean by bean, which is why harvests run for months rather than weeks.
