  • On our way to La Callera we stopped at this place to have partial panoramic view of the city. Its rahter a busy highway-route and not easy to park. Thanks to Daniel and Carina for stopping here. We could see Bogotan sunset.

  • There is a cable-car sytem to have the best view of the city from a nearby mountain. But since I already had that kinda experience in Caracas, Venezuela I wanted to experience something else. So, stopping here was kinda alternative if you dont have time to go to Monserrate.

  • Daniel took a different route while coming back so that I could see more of the countryside. There we came across the place where we could see the hill-top where we had hour horseriding and the artificial lake what we did not see clearly. Don't have a picture of sunset by the lake unfortunately.

  • I was also pointed out to a place where some Colobian folks made their own summer-house. This is different from the people living on the hil inside Bogota city.

  • If you happen to visit Zipaquira salt cathedral, its worth allowing an hour or to spend in the town itself.

     I´ll leave the addres. This is a food chain, but the biggest is located in "La zona Rosa" in the 83 street near to the Andino Mall. The name is "El Carnal" and the food is great and cheap.
