Itinerary
Visit the oldest district in Bogotá, learn the most about it, sighting the city center and discover the enchanting history of this cultural spot in town.
The Bank of the Republic began its purpose in 1939 to protect the archaeological heritage of our country. In December of that year, the quimbaya poporo was the first object in this collection, which turns 80 in 2019.
If the Gold Museum is not available, you can count on this other option. The Botero Museum has one of the most important collections of international art that can be found in Latin America. Thanks to the donation made by Maestro Fernando Botero in 2000 to the Banco de la República, the public from the capital and abroad have been able to access this important international art exhibition for free and permanently. It is made up of 208 works, 123 by him and 85 by prominent international artists.

About Bogotá
Bogotá, Colombia's capital, sits high in the Andes at around 2,600 metres, with a colonial old quarter, a famed gold museum and a hilltop church.
La Candelaria, the old quarter, lies at the foot of the eastern hills, with streets of colonial houses, galleries and murals around Plaza de Bolívar and its cathedral. The Gold Museum holds thousands of pre-Hispanic gold objects, and the Botero Museum shows the plump figures of Fernando Botero, who gave the city his collection. Above town, a funicular and cable car rise to Monserrate, a white church at over 3,100 metres.
Top-ranked sights in Bogotá: Plaza de Bolivar, Botero Museum (Museo Botero), Gold Museum (Museo del Oro).
