Colombia comes to city

The diversity of life and culture in Colombia is to be celebrated in a weekend festival of music, talks, storytelling and activities at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE).

Visitors to the John Hope Gateway on Saturday and Sunday will be able to learn about Colombia by experiencing a taste of its rich culture through music, dance workshops, children's activities and food.

RBGE scientist James Richardson will also be on hand to share his experiences with the audience.

The diversity of the country's ecosystems will be the main focus of an illustrated talk by James, a tropical botanist who has worked extensively in Colombia.
