1. Casa Libreria Wilborada 1047
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 193 reviews
Set within a gorgeous restored English-style mansion, this bookstore brings you home. Immense wood shelves are covered in books, and the comfortable lounge chairs and couches beg to be sat on. The selection covers it all: classic to modern literature, poetry, photography and food, graphic novels and essays. Treat yourself to a hot beverage at their coffee shop while you read or chat with friends. As if the books in English and the bilingual librarians weren't enough reasons to visit, they also have cultural programs for children, and adults can listen in as experts discuss literary topics. This is a place to let your creativity and imagination run wild.

Wilborada is a magical hideout in the middle of the chaotic business/financial district in Bogota. We went to story time which was a fun hour on a Saturday with our six year old boy. I could spend hours in the attic of the beautifully renovated house reading the well curated book collection. The coffee on the first floor is delicious and has a great energy to it!

Just impressive. It is a beautiful church, where the inside of the church is decorated with dark wood in comparison to most of other churches in Bogota that have gold or white tones.

While there are lots of foodie reasons to spend time in the neighborhoods north of downtown La Candelaria, this area is the most engaging in Bogota and worth a day just wandering. It helps that there are lots of sites and museums to visit as well.

7. Plaza de Mercado de Paloquemao

We're Mexican, which means we walk markets, which we proceeded to do all over Colombia, and Bogota's Paloquemao is the Big Enchilada! The amazing variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats, flowers and on and on, put us in mind of Mexico City's La Merced. That's high praise. Colombia has excellent artisanal sugar, panela. The fresh blackberries brought tears to my eyes! The aisles are spacious and clean for a big market. If you are a food person, this is the place!

Built in 1556, Bogota's oldest surviving church has a beautiful ornate interior.

You'll pass by this Church for sure as it's almost across the Gold museum, so please do come in - don't think it's just another Church. This one, the Church of San Francisco is the oldest one in Colombia's capital. The golden altar will astonish you.
