I found a brochure in the house of El Cerro de Monserrate, that the summit in Caracas to Bogota as you reaches by cable car to dominate the cityscape. In this case it is also a place of pilgrimage, but for the tourist to visit the Fallen Christ is not the case, to walk up, unless you want to make the acquaintance of some street thug. With the funicular instead you can enjoy a particular landscape because, after the renewal of 2003, now the cars have the glass roof.
Above are two of the most ‘famous restaurants in Bogota: Casa San Isidro and the Casa Santa Clara, the latter preferred by the beautiful world of the capital. If you try something, rather the city and found two pages of assorted tips and comments on Poor But Happy: Classic Bogota Restaurants and Bars The best of Bogota (to avoid the bars and nightclubs in the tourist areas too dangerous or those too). Bogota is the official site of Tourism.
