The capital of Colombia founded in 1538 is rightfully considered a city with a very rich cultural heritage. Tourists who go on a sightseeing excursion with a English-speaking guide know that in Bogota it is easy to find architectural attractions of various eras - from the baroque of the 17th century to modern skyscrapers. Bolivar square is the heart of the city: it is decorated with a monument to the national hero it is named after, and several magnificent buildings - the cathedral, the presidential palace, and the Capitol. The best observation deck is on Montserrat Mountain; among museums, 1001guide highly recommends the Museum of Gold: the ticket price is very low, and the exposition is amazingly rich.
