The origins of Bogotá lie in the district of La Candelaria, an area with monumental colonial buildings, but also quiet cobble stone streets which make you forget you are in a metropolis with millions of inhabitants.
Upon arrival in Bogotá, the capital of Colombia, I immediately went to La Candelaria district, where I easily found a place to stay. While just before I had seen relatively modern buildings, skyscrapers, roads full of cars, walking in La Candelaria soon made me realize that this was still a quite authentic area of the city. I decided by going to the most obvious place to start discovering the historic city centre: the Plaza Bolívar, or the main square named after the famous liberator of South America. Dark clouds were rolling in and seemed to get stuck on the mountains surrounding the 2,600m high capital, and they seemed to put a heavy lid on the square.
