Hacienda El Paraíso, Colonial museum in El Cerrito Valle del Cauca, Colombia.

Hacienda El Paraíso is a museum in a colonial mansion in El Cerrito, Valle del Cauca, Colombia, displaying living quarters, kitchens, and service buildings. The structure extends around a central patio with colonnades and open galleries connecting several rooms filled with original furniture and everyday items.

Víctor Cabal, a cattle rancher from Buga and former mayor of Cali, built the house in 1815. On 20 June 1828 it was sold to Jorge Enrique Isaacs, father of the writer Jorge Isaacs, who owned it until 15 June 1858. The Valle del Cauca department bought it on 18 April 1953, and Luis Alberto Acuña carried out its first restoration in 1954. It was declared a National Monument of Colombia on 30 December 2017.

The name El Paraíso belongs to the hacienda itself and is not taken from a place or character in María; the novel, published in 1867, is set largely in this house. The rooms keep the layout described in the book, and in Efraín's room a vase is filled with fresh roses each day in memory of the flowers María brought him.

The museum opens daily from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM with an entrance fee of 9,000 COP for adults and reduced rates for children and seniors. The rooms sit on one level connected by outdoor walkways, so comfortable shoes are recommended.

A large rock in front of the facade serves as a photo spot for couples recreating a scene from the novel María. This boulder appears in the text and is often visited by guests who appreciate the literary connection.
