Major Tourist Attractions In Bogota

Probably the most dazzling sight in the world, Museo Del Oro in Bogota has more than 10,000 pieces of gold on display, some of them from pre-Hispanic cultures. Some of it is crafted from an alloy of gold and copper (known as tumbaga), and a major part of the collection consists of items which were interred with the dead. Your camera does not need a flash for this one! 
 Architectural styles in Bogota are eye-catching – from stone buildings in classical free style to futuristic buildings – see all that you want here. The Plaza de Bolivar is the center of the original town; all around it you’ll find an interesting mix of architectural styles. 

For a spectacular view of the city, go to the top of the Cerro de Monserrate – the mountain which overlooks the city center. The Capitolio Nacional is a huge stone building in classical Greek style.

There are many colonial churches in Bogota that date back to the 17th and 18th centuries. One of the most remarkable ones is Santa Clara, which is now a museum. Other beautiful churches to see are the La Concepcion, (houses the remarkable Mudejar vault), San Ignacio (huge and full of priceless art pieces), La Tercera (has carvings in cedar walnut) and San Diego (a country church).
