Plaza de Bolivar is the main square of Bogota, the capital of Colombia, with a history dating back to the city's founding in 1539. In the center of the square stands a bronze statue of the Liberator Simon Bolivar, created by Italian sculptor Pietro Tenerani, which is one of the city's earliest public monuments. The square is enclosed by buildings from different eras: on the east side is the Primate Cathedral of Colombia,on the south side is the neoclassical Capitol building, on the west side is the Lievano Palace where the mayor's office is located, and on the north side is the modern Palace of Justice with its simple design. During the colonial period, it was used as a public market and bullring, and today it remains an important stage for civic gatherings and cultural events. The square is filled with flocks of pigeons, and you can buy a small bag of feed to experience feeding them. There are also vendors leading brightly decorated llamas for photos, and street performers moving through the crowd. When visiting, you can use the square as a transfer point for walking in the old town, as the colorful streets of La Candelaria and several museums are within walking distance.Bogota · 12.6 km from downtown

Botero Museum is housed in a converted colonial-era mansion and displays 208 works donated by painter Fernando Botero to the Central Bank of Colombia in 2000. Among them, 123 pieces are his own oil paintings, drawings, pastels, and sculptures; from the voluptuous Mona Lisa to the series of paintings themed around the period of violence in Colombia, his signature exaggerated volume is evident throughout. The remaining 85 pieces are original works by famous European and American artists from his private collection, including works by Monet, Renoir, Picasso, Dalí, Miró, and Matisse. The exhibition halls are arranged around a central courtyard. The original display was arranged by Botero himself, and as part of the donation agreement, the works are not to be loaned out or moved, maintaining the original layout set by the artist to this day. This neighborhood is the historic district where many of Bogota's museums are concentrated, and several venues, such as the Gold Museum, are within walking distance.Bogota · 12.7 km from downtown

Iglesia de San Francisco

Iglesia de San Francisco

3.1
The Church of San Francisco was built around 1450 and is regarded as a masterpiece of Baroque architecture. It consists of a cathedral, several chapels and numerous cloisters. The church houses masterpieces of paintings and sculptures of Indians and Spaniards. The façade of the church is dominated by three-hole triumphal arches, with 4 slender scroll columns supporting the heavy eaves. The upper part of the church is a dome, and its altar decoration is extraordinary. Visitors who come here will be amazed by the diminutiveness of the church. In fact, this church built in the early 17th century is quite grand.Bogota · 12.1 km from downtown

Standing on the cobblestones of Plaza Bolivar, the cathedral's bronze dome captivated my eyes. The afternoon sun stained the colonial facades a honey-hued hue. The aroma of scorched corn tortilla carts wafted from the air. Suddenly, a pigeon fluttered and landed on the shoulder of Simon Bolivar's statue—the liberator, sword raised, gazing upon the hustle and bustle of modern streets. I sat on a bench, nibbling on a fresh mango dipped in chili sauce. Elders in traditional ponchos fed sparrows in the shade, while children in school uniforms chased balloons. The snap of boot heels clacking at the changing of the guard at the presidential palace startled a flock of pigeons. In that moment, centuries of history seemed frozen in the square's wind.

This is an art gallery of a very famous local artist. His paintings are all depicted with the image of fat people. I believe many of us have seen these paintings in our daily lives. I think they are quite interesting. You can come and have a look.

The area of ​​this park is quite large, and if you look from a high place, you can see that there are many waterways here, so it feels like this is also the place with the best ecological environment in the entire city. Tourists can come and take a look.

This is the largest park in the area. There are many buildings and green areas. It feels quite primitive. Maybe because it is so large, it feels like a big community, which is okay.

Carrera 7 is the most important commercial street in Bogota, the capital of Colombia. The road surface of the street is not very wide, but there are many shops, banks and restaurants on both sides, and the business atmosphere is very strong. If you want to shop or taste delicious food, don't miss this street.
