Six covered outdoor escalators, totalling 384 metres, climbing the steep hillside of Comuna 13. Built in 2011 by the city to replace a 350-step staircase that had been the only way for residents to reach their homes from the bus stop at the bottom. They cut a twenty-five-minute climb to six minutes and have become the single most-photographed civic engineering project in Colombia.
Combined with the murals along the surrounding lanes, the escalators are the spine of any Comuna 13 walking tour.
