There is a big airport that has many options for international flights, there are many possibilities for you to enjoy the city, depending on your interests you will find the bohemian and/or the cultural aspects of Bogota and maybe you will love Bogota and want to make it your home. Bogota is a city which is open to all.
The cultural life in Bogota, includes; theater, concerts, cinema….etc, you can find all of this in the historic center and the nearby neighborhoods like Teusaquillo or Chapinero. At the end of this post we will leave some useful links so you can plan your time in Bogota.
In Bogota you need something warm to wear as the weather during the day can became a little cold. you can walk or sit in the many park benches and enjoy the sun, and the many trees.
Bogota has a temperate climate and almost always there is a little bit of rain around.
From Wednesday to Sunday it is possible to get free cultural activities or really cheap prices, these activities include concerts, theatre, photo exhibitions, street theatre and more. The “carrera sèptima” is a long walk along this avenue, there are some bikes that you can use for free too, but you need to register and complete documents to get one of them.
if you like to party, Bogota offers something for everyone.
Personally I like dancing “salsa”. The music and the movement of the caribbean rhythms, makes everybody want to dance.
you will find many places to dance on “carrera cuarta con calle 19 o con calle 13” which is in the center of the city.
the casual and friendly atmosphere is such that you can arrive here and you will find many people just like you, searching for a good party to dance the night away. Salsa is not the only dance style you will find there other genres. Bogota caters for all tastes and for young and old.
Another possibility if you are looking for something up market you will find it in “calle 85 o parque de la 93” here there are a variety of restaurants and bars for your enjoyment.
