You lift off in a bright red cable car and the city of Cali tilts and widens beneath you—tile roofs, steep streets, and the green sweep of the valley pressing up against the western hills. The teleférico climbs the heights of Siloé and deposits you at a string of lookouts where the city seems both hurried and patient: taxi horns carry uphill, children watch from stoops, and the air smells of frying arepa.
