Bogota – The Rhythm of the Capital Among the Andes and the Colors of Street Art
If you are looking for a city that combines colonial architecture, contemporary art, and the spirit of Latin America, be sure to include Bogota in your itinerary. The Colombian capital will surprise you with its scale, atmosphere, and friendliness. The city is located in the mountains at an altitude of more than 2,600 meters above sea level, which means that every turn of the street opens up a new perspective. To visit Bogota and not miss the main thing, start with a walk through the historical center - walking tours will help you quickly get your bearings and get inspired by the local culture.
What Bogota Can Show You
Bogota is a city of contrasts: from colonial churches to graffiti neighborhoods. The city is filled with an unforgettable atmosphere that you should not miss. Below we have made a selection of locations that you will definitely see if you go on one of the Bogota walking tours.
Monserrate
This is a mountain with a monastery on the top and a panoramic view of the city. You can climb to the monastery on foot, by funicular, or cable car. The view of Bogota is breathtaking, especially in the morning. A round-trip ticket for the funicular costs about 25,000 COP (about $6), and this is one of the most visited places.
Gold museum
One of the most important museums in South America, where hundreds of gold exhibits are stored, which were created by pre-Hispanic civilizations. Here you will learn why gold played such an important role in culture. The entrance fee is about 5,000 COP (a little more than $1), admission is free on Sundays.
Botero museum
This museum is dedicated to the work of the famous artist Fernando Botero, known for his "plump" figures. Entry is absolutely free. Many tours include a visit to the museum as a mandatory part of the route through La Candelaria, an old neighborhood with narrow streets and balcony facades.
Bolivar Square
The main square of the city is the center of political and religious life. Here are the Primada Cathedral, the Palace of Justice, and the Parliament building. This place is open to everyone and is always full of life. Street artists, coffee sellers, and students create the atmosphere of a real urban heart.
Street art of La Candelaria
This area is a real open-air graffiti museum. Here street art decorates the walls and tells the social and political history of Colombia. Most tours also include this area, and guided tours allow you to gain a deeper understanding of the context. Entry is, of course, free – the area is accessible 24 hours a day.

How to get to Bogota
The most convenient way to get there is by plane. El Dorado International Airport (BOG) is located just 15 km from the city center. From there, you can take the TransMilenio bus (routes K86 and M86) or take a taxi. Travel time is about 30-40 minutes. Trains as a means of transport in Bogota are not developed, but intercity buses regularly arrive at the Salitre terminal from other cities in Colombia, such as Medellin and Cali.
Tourists often choose to fly because of its convenience and good logistics: flights from Miami, Panama and Mexico City arrive several times a day. To get around the city, it is most convenient to combine walking and taxi or Uber – especially if you want to get to remote areas.
