Through its photography, this beautiful volume showcases the great natural wealth of Boyacá.By showing us its dazzling páramos, forests, jungles, and deserts, its unexpected rivers, lakes, and wetlands, its gentle waterfalls and swamps, its reading will undoubtedly influence the choice of our next tourist destination.A destination that will not only surprise visitors with the variety and beauty of its fauna, flora, and landscapes, but also with the fascination produced by traveling through the most peaceful territory in Colombia, where its kind and cordial people always make us feel at home.Emblematic and majestic are the protected areas of this vast territory. A place where the wonders of creation are present in ecosystems ranging from dry forest and tropical humid jungle, through mid and high Andean forests, to the uniqueness of its páramos, of which the department houses more than half of those in the country.There is no doubt that we are truly fortunate to have this type of territory, which allows us unique and unrepeatable experiences, while making us rethink our role on earth and the duty we have to care for and respect them.This book has been published thanks to the support of the Corporación Autónoma Regional de Boyacá, Corpoboyacá, which established the Regional System of Protected Areas (SIRAP) as an inter-institutional coordination strategy to manage actions for the conservation and in situ protection of the jurisdiction's strategic ecosystems.In the last 7 years, the Corporation has intensified the study of ecosystems, the declaration of protected areas, the formulation of their management plans, and the execution of programs and projects aimed at their protection and restoration.Its work in environmental education has successfully reached the communities residing in or near them, contributing to their economic and social sustainability through restoration work or their involvement in green businesses such as ecotourism and the sustainable use of biodiversity.
