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.
Soon after leaving the lively Plaza Bolívar behind, walking uphill, you enter quiet cobble stone streets with houses painted in different colours: orange, blue, white, yellow. Continuing your way up, and you will feel like being in a town instead of a capital city. Here, there is hardly any traffic, there are just a few people on the streets, and it is only when you turn around and see the vast city lying at the feet of the Monserrate and Guadalupe mountains. Walking down again brings you to splendid buildings like the Teatro Colón, the enormous Biblioteca Luis Angel Arango, the Palacio de San Carlos, as well as several colonial churches. It is the combination of these monumental buildings and the cosy, colourful streets that are so close by, that make La Candelaria an attractive area to visit.
