Travel Information

Bogota

Welcome to Bogota! Right in the heart of the Andes mountains, Bogota is the capital city of Colombia as well as the largest city in the country. Sitting in the midst of the mountain range means that the streets are winding and the weather is fitful. From the historical center  (La Candelaria) characterized by its colonial architecture to the outsides of the city (Chia) where the famous restaurant and bar Andres Carne de Res sits proudly; the city is filled with variety. Modern buildings intertwine with old structures and traditions fill the city hand in hand with shopping malls and fancy restaurants. In many ways, Bogota has it all.
