    Arauca is a district under the jurisdiction of the municipality of Palestina (Caldas). Located on a ravine on the right bank of the Cauca River, it is an active point that links the center of the Department of Caldas with the Lower West.

    The name "Arauca" appears mentioned in the stories of the civil wars, at the same time that La Margarita is mentioned as one of the most important estates in that sector.

    In the forties and fifties of the twentieth century, its boom was unusual because it was an active train station. If one got on in Arauca, one could go directly to La Virginia, to many cities in the Cauca Valley. People and merchandise in all directions.


    Many of the employees of the vacation centers and condominiums in the La Rochela sector live in Arauca. In this district, construction materials are extracted from the Chinchiná River and tributaries of the Cauca.

    Arauca has an active trade. Especially, the purchase of coffee and cocoa.
