Bogota is one of the most historic cities in Colombia, and the perfect place to learn about South American culture, buy collectibles and artifacts, and even take part in a bullfighting event! The city is bustling with activity year around, and you'll find a number of historic sites, attractions and shops in the downtown area. Here are some of Bogota's top attractions:
Palacio de San Francisco
This ancient palace was declared a national monument in 1984, but was built in the early 20th century. You can take a tour of this dazzling palace to see dozens of artifacts, pictures and paintings of nobles and noteworthy officials from Bogota's past.
Plaza de Toros la Santamaria
This famous plaza attracts thousands of visitors and locals during January and February, Bogota's prime bullfighting season. Head here any time of year to see the bullfighting stadiums and plazas, visit local shops to pick up some collectibles and souvenirs, and even catch a bullfight in action.
Biblioteca Nacional
The national library was inaugurated in 1938 to celebrate the fourth centenary of Bogota, and is one of the city's most beautiful historic buildings. It's located on Calle 24, and is a great place to see the hundreds of old books and texts from Bogota's past.
Casa de Poesia Silva
This old, unpretentious house is located in Bogota's literary district, and once served as the home of Colombian poet Jose Asuncion. It's one of the few standing late-nineteenth century homes in Bogota, and is now open to the public; take a tour to listen to the audio-archives of Colombian and international poets firsthand. It's located on Calle 14, No. 3-41 in Bogota.
Fundacion Alzate Avendano
This quaint art gallery is located in the old quarter of Bogota and is tucked inside an old colonial house. The gallery houses antiques, paintings, ceramics and other collections of contemporary Colombian art. It's located on Calle 10 con Careera 3 in Bogota.
