Roldanillo, Administrative municipality in Valle del Cauca, Colombia.

Roldanillo spans across 235 square kilometers of land in western Colombia, with an urban center occupying less than 5 square kilometers.

The establishment of Roldanillo in 1576 marked the beginning of Spanish colonial settlement in this section of the Valle del Cauca Department.

The municipality maintains strong connections to geometric art through the works of Colombian artist Omar Rayo, who contributed numerous pieces to local collections.

The Occidente bus terminal connects travelers to major Colombian cities including Cali, Tulua, Buga, Armenia, Cartago, and Pereira throughout the day.

The municipality has gained recognition as Colombia's flying capital by hosting international paragliding competitions at its elevation of 966 meters.
