Colombia Holidays

Colombia – Go out with a bang

Tejo is a traditional Colombian throwing sport, somewhat reminiscent of bowling but far more lively. The aim is to throw a metal puck, or tejo, into the centre of a ring for six points. Around the ring are small paper pouches, called mechas, filled with gunpowder. Striking one of these will earn you three points – along with an adrenaline rush as it explodes and a string of cheers from your teammates. It’s a distinctive way to dive into local culture, connect with communities and experience a piece of Colombia’s traditions.
