Touristic Information: Bogotá and its Surroundings

    Bogotá offers a unique and enriching experience for international visitors, combining a deep historical legacy with the dynamism of a major Latin American capital. The city is located in the Eastern Cordillera of the Andes, at an altitude of 2,640 meters, which gives it a cool and somewhat cold climate throughout the year, with average temperatures ranging between 12°C and 18 °C. This high-altitude setting provides a stunning natural backdrop for a city rich in cultural offerings.

    The city has contrasts between the modern and the historic. The historic center, La Candelaria, is characterized by its cobblestone streets and well-preserved colonial architecture, hosting a remarkable concentration of museums, universities, and government buildings. Key attractions for visitors include the Gold Museum, which houses the world’s largest collection of pre-Hispanic gold artifacts, and the Botero Museum, showcasing an extensive collection of works by the renowned Colombian artist Fernando Botero alongside pieces by international masters. In addition, there is the Monserrate Sanctuary, which offers a panoramic view of the city and the surrounding savannah.

    Beyond the metropolitan area, the surroundings of Bogotá offer a wide variety of unique destinations. Close to the city, on the north side, is the town of Zipaquirá, home to the Salt Cathedral, an extraordinary underground Roman Catholic church built inside the tunnels of an old salt mine 200 meters below ground. There is also the colonial town of Villa de Leyva, with its huge cobbled square and nearby paleontological sites, or the legendary Guatavita Lake, a sacred place in the legend of El Dorado.
