哥伦比亚的加勒比海岸线 The Caribbean coastline of Colombia

Northern coast of Colombia

Central America becomes South America at the shores of Colombia, the northernmost country in South America. Colombia is the only country in South America that has coastline on both the Caribbean Sea to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Seen here is a stretch of beach near Buritaca, on the Caribbean side of Colombia. This region of Colombia boasts some of the most beautiful beaches in the country. It is also among the country's most ecologically diverse with jungle, desert, and the highest coastal mountain range in the world, the Sierra Nevada.

Colombia's colonial history began in this region when Spanish conquistadors landed in 1499. Within 50 years, the Spanish had established the kingdom of Granada beginning a rule that would last nearly 300 years.

哥伦比亚北部海岸

中美洲在哥伦比亚海岸变成了南美洲，哥伦比亚是南美洲最北的国家。哥伦比亚是南美洲唯一一个东临加勒比海、西临太平洋的国家。这里可以看到哥伦比亚加勒比海一侧布里塔卡附近的一片海滩。哥伦比亚的这个地区拥有全国最美丽的海滩。它也是该国生态多样性最丰富的地区之一，有丛林、沙漠和世界上最高的沿海山脉内华达山脉。

哥伦比亚的殖民历史始于1499年西班牙征服者登陆该地区。在50年内，西班牙人建立了格拉纳达王国，开始了一个持续近300年的统治。
