Chinchiná is a town and municipality located in the department of Caldas in Colombia, 17km (11miles) southwest of Manizales. Founded in 1857 by Antioquian colonists, Chinchiná is settled in a valley surrounded by coffee plantations, called "fincas", in the Central Cordillera of the Andes. Known as Colombia's "coffee heart", the town is home to the Buendía coffee factory and Cenicafé, a coffee research center.
Because of its close association with coffee production, the municipality was named part of the "Coffee Cultural Landscape" UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2011.[2]
An active volcano, Nevado del Ruiz, lies approximately 30km (20miles) to the east.
Chinchiná is situated at 5°N -110°W. Its elevation is 1,360 meters (4,462 feet), and has a mean temperature of approximately 20 degrees Celsius.
