　　Forty years in and this divey salsa and reggae bar near Universidad de Los Andes remains a mainstay with DJs and sweat-soaked bodies from all over Colombia.

Must-see attractions
Museo Nacional
Bogotá
　　Housed in the expansive, Greek-cross-shaped building called El Panóptico (designed as a prison by English architect Thomas Reed in 1874), the Museo Nacional explores Colombia's past via archeology, history, ethnology and art. The collection is spread across 17 galleries that will eventually be themed by floor – the museum is...
Museo del Oro
Bogotá
　　Bogotá's most famous museum and one of the most fascinating in South America, the Gold Museum contains more than 55,000 pieces of gold and other materials from all of Colombia's major pre-Hispanic cultures. The collection is laid out in logical, thematic rooms over three floors; descriptions are in Spanish and...
Iglesia de San Francisco
Bogotá
　　Built between 1557 and 1621, the Church of San Francisco is Bogotá's oldest surviving church. In the atmospherically dark interior, with its extravagant pews and steady trickle of praying pilgrims, your eye is immediately drawn to the gilded, U-shaped 17th-century altarpiece, the largest and most elaborate of its kind in...
Plaza de Bolívar
Bogotá
　　The usual place to start discovering Bogotá is the giant concrete Plaza de Bolívar, the heart of the original town. What it lacks in green foliage it makes up for in grandiosity. In the middle of the square is a bronze statue of Simón Bolívar (cast in 1846), the work...
Plaza de Mercado de Paloquemao
Bogotá
　　A real-deal, messy Colombian market. Go early on Friday or Sunday – flower days! ...
Theatron
Bogotá
　　On a small road between Carreras 9 and 13 in the heart of Chapinero, the classic Theatron is carved from a huge film house. It draws a gay and straight crowd – some 3000 people on weekends – spread between its eight environments. Some areas are men-only. ...
Colección de Arte
Bogotá
　　Most of Banco de la República's permanent art collection, which features 800 pieces by 250 different artists spread over 16 exhibition halls at two addresses, is reached via elaborate staircases within the same museum complex as Casa de Moneda and Museo Botero. The collection has been reorganized into five time...
Centro Cultural Gabriel García Márquez
Bogotá
　　Slotting seamlessly into historic Candelaria, this cleverly constructed arts center anchored by a graceful amphitheater was designed by Franco-Colombian architect Rogelio Salmona, who died shortly before the center's inauguration in 2008. The building honors Colombia’s greatest author and is (unsurprisingly) equipped with a hefty bookshop, as well as a small...
Museo Botero
Bogotá
　　Even if you've never heard of Fernando Botero, you'll probably recognize some of his highly distinctive paintings of oversized (read: chubby) characters, including dodgy dictators, fleet-footed dancers, dogs and birds. Colombia’s most famous living artist is also a prolific sculptor and his curvaceous bronze statues display equally generous girth. 　　The...
Museo Santa Clara
Bogotá
　　One of Bogotá's most richly decorated churches, the Santa Clara is also its oldest (along with Iglesia de San Francisco). Deconsecrated in 1968, it was acquired by the government and is now run as a museum, with paintings by some of Colombia's most revered baroque artists. The church was once...
Casa de Nariño
Bogotá
　　On the south side of Plaza de Bolívar, beyond the Capitolio Nacional and reached via Carreras 8 or 7, this is Colombia's neoclassical presidential building, where the country's leader lives and works. To visit, you'll need to email or go to the website and scroll down to 'Visitas Casa de...
Plaza Central de Usaquén
Bogotá
　　Just north of the main square in the village-like Usaquén, you'll find stallholders selling food, colorful purses, assorted handicrafts and bamboo saxophones – there's a satellite area a couple of blocks east, too. ...
