Museo Santa Clara

Free for seniors, show passport photo. Otherwise 41k per person. Accessible from plaza Bolivar and enter where the guards have blocked the street. Must show bag content. Informative digital kiosks with interactive buttons for several languages. A tour guide might be nice if you want a long tour. We preferred self guided, reading the placards. Use chapgpt for highlights. We visited on Sunday around 11am and practically had the place to ourselves. An interesting way to spend a hour being surrounded by 🎨art. No banos on premises for tourists.

Must see. Admission was COP 40,000 (which is around $15 USD. Cash only!). You could spend 10 minutes or 2 hours. It’s only the one room, so what you see is what you get. But still, it’s one of the most unique places I’ve ever seen. It’s right next to Plaza Bolivar, so the location is near the other museums and is very safe. Don’t leave Bogotá without stopping in!

Foreigners - don't waste your money it's 43,000Pesos/ $10USD to enter meanwhile locals are paying 6,000/ $1.50USD. The space is tiny and currently undergoing renovations, so it's not even peaceful inside. I wish I hadn't bothered going in tbh

Absolutely amazing display of art both old and modern in this very unpretentious building. A must see but check the opening times as they are limited and when we visited armed soldiers were closing off streets but access was permitted if you explained you wanted to go to the museum. My only complaint would be that none of the descriptive and detailed texts were available in an English version.

Admission is $10 usd for foreigners. There is stunning baroque architecture inside along with mesmerizing Catholic art pieces. There was an exhibit at the time which took up a lot of space in the center but was still interesting.

This museum is so stunning with beautiful baroque decorations. A must visit place in Bogota.

This was a big effort to get to. central location but so many police barricades and need to take circuitous diversions to get there. Once you’re in it’s overwhelming. What an amazing place and space. It’s a challenge to know where to test your eyes. Glorious 17th C church, once the cloistered home of nuns. The decorations in the church are sublime. Not a tranquil feeling though x

Ask the police outside the barricades for permission to get to the front door of the museum. Look for the big banners hanging outside indicating the museum. The area is next to government buildings hence the higher security. Enjoy the beautiful ceiling architecture and altar. There are some nice co-exhibits of recent art in the exhibit area to the right after entering. This section was very good, in my opinion. Some of the other modern art seems out of place when placed together with the older artwork of the building. Maybe the themes didnt quite compliment the existing architecture. Entry price COP 4,000 in 2022 February.
