1. Parque Jaime Duque
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 432 reviews
A world of culture and amusement in one single place. Located in Tocancipa just 30 min from Bogota, is one of the best parks in Latin America. The attractions include various museums, a beautiful zoo, amusement rides, excellent restaurants, etc. The park belongs to a Foundation, profits are donated to charity and conservation programs of colombian species.

Beautiful landscaped, maintained with excellent detail and cleanliness, Parque Jaime Duque's theme is the travels and interests of its founder. The park is a collection of cultural, artistic, and natural themes from all around the world focusing on the Jaime Duque's career as a pilot for Avianca. There is an limited, but growing zoo with primarily Colombian and some other distinctive wildlife. Unlike American theme parks, the rides are relatively unspectacular, but still well-suited for young children primarily. The restaurant we visited was clean, reasonable and the food was well prepared. Attendants were friendly and obviously hard-working...focused on child safety on the rides and attraction areas. The replica Taj Mahal is the most obvious feature and is a beautiful structure. Inside is a cyclorama with 3-D dioramas explaining Colombian history. The entire park's education theme is the importance of caring for the environment. Many rare and near extinct Colombian flora is represented and the park beyond the developed area is considered a preserve. Good for families with young children and others who like beautiful grounds, Colombian themes, and is a good place to get away from the City yet still have some of its benefits. Probably not the best for active teens if they are looking for exciting rides and thrills.

We made the trip up here while staying at Jardin Calibri and had an incredible time. My wife and son were the ones who did the flying and both landed with the biggest smiles I have ever seen on their faces. Incredibly professional, both instructors...MoreThank you very much for your visit, we will be very happy to see you again flying in the clouds with us in Parapente Paraíso.

Beautiful completely carved in Salt Cathedral is unique in its kind and presents visitors a majesty unparalleled. 180 meters underground lies a place away from everyday life invites reflection, self-discovery and inner encounter with the spiritual part.

Extraordinary experience, sometimes you travel to some countries and you see something like this but not ready for tourists, this Catedral has all the tourist infrastructure and the beauty. I have been traveling for work to Bogota for 25 years and never had the chance to do some sightseeing, and finally in the last trip I was able to saw this Catedral.
5. Parque Ecologico Pionono

Reviewed By ThaiTeacherBangkok - Bangkok, Thailand
Entrance costs 4000 pesos per adult. Children are free. We used a guide from the entrance to show us around. He asked only for a donation for his time. This was really helpful as he took us down paths we wouldn't have otherwise walked on. The guide was full of useful information about the plants, birds and local folk tales about the area. Sadly he only spoke in Spanish so our friend needed to translate into English. You can walk to the park but it takes two hours up a very steep road. A taxi from the town costs 15000 pesos. Remember to take the taxi driver's telephone number and he'll come back later to pick you up. There is a camping site in the park if you're interested.

This is an isolated monument I love photography and this gives an impecable option of having a perfect photo, also noticed the tranquility of this area and the greenery of landscape even the smell is from the plants.
I really recommend this place perhaps the signage is not to accurate to get there buut never mind a great place to visit.

Reviewed By Jabs2013 - Bogota, Colombia
Visite esta iglesia sin saber que existia.
la mayoria de Iglesias en Colombia son muy viejas y esta es muy reciente.
tiene muchos detalles muy lujosos.
la arquitectura es muy bonita y es un sitio a visitar como museo o como santuario para ir a rezar.
es de los caballeros de la virgen y es un sitio cerrado donde no todo el mundo puede entrar.
es un sitio muy calmado pero vale la pena ir a visitarlo, en especial si se es devoto de la Virgen.

Reviewed By podrozniczka60 - New Jersey
This beautiful church is located on the Comuneros Square in the heart of historic center.of Zipaquirá . It is the main church of the diocese. It is a distinctive 19th century church externally similar in design to some other known churches in Colombia. To finish it took over 100 years. Inside there are stately solemn columns and rather simple but pretty interior.
