This final home of Simon Bolivar contains a museum housing works of art from countries he helped liberate.
Reviewed By marciaa513 - Hanoi, Vietnam
This landmark where Simon Bolivar spent his final days is a reminder that Santa Marta has so much more to offer than just beautiful beaches and good sea food. The "libertador" of South America is a figure well worth learning about and no better place than this. You can see the original structures of Bolivar's hacienda, as well as the monuments that have been raised in his honor. I also highly recommend using one of the young local guides who provide a 40-minute informative tour and are eager to answer visitors' questions. They are paid in tips only and do a great job. We spent about an hour here and it's only about 15 minutes from the historic center or Rodadero beach. Don't miss it!

Colombian art collection from the colonial period to the present.
Reviewed By viajera1741 - Washington DC, United States
This art gallery is right next to the Botero and worth a visit for its eclectic collection of colonial excesses and works by contemporary artists.

A hidden treasure. The museum provides history of the Colonial period of Columbia. Most of the exhibits are in both Spanish and English. This is an underappreciated museum with more guards than patrons at any one time. It should take about 30-45 minutes to go through the 4 main exhibit halls/rooms.

Great little museum containing works of renowned Colombian painter and sculptor, Fernando Botero.
Reviewed By TallTravels29 - San Jose, United States
I’ve been to museums all over the world but none with a collection as charming and bountiful (pun fully intended) as this one. Botero’s voluptuous heroines and portly heroes jump off the canvas in exuberant delight and my personal favourite the Mona Lisa should truly replace DaVinci’s version as the world’s greatest masterpiece. The rest of the collection wasn’t pretty strong too - Picasso, Chagall, Renoir - I was impressed at the range of artists. This is truly worth a visit.

The place is for sure one of the most beautiful places to visit in Bogota. The paintings and murals inside are impressive.

In September, 2006, the colonial building of this museum was transferred to the National University of Colombia. The University made a "Museums portal" with the collections and the heritage of the University and named the project "Cultural Heritage and Museums System of the National University of Colombia". The building opened to the public with two exhibitions in October 2007. The "Museums portal" has two exhibition rooms and an auditorium. Admission to the building and exhibitions is totally free.

A small not very known exhibition. We heard about it in the graffiti tour. The exhibitions cover almost 3 decades of the bloody conflict in Colombia. It is very important and gives background to today's Colombia. The photographs are powerful and tell a sad story of conflicts and war.
