Plaza de Bolívar

Always like visiting the historical part of the city and this plaza definitely evoked history. Majestic buildings against the backdrop of the mountain, there was a Saturday market and vendors selling their arts and wares, it was busy. Did not see anything bad but we were warned to be careful.

Plaza Bolívar is an incredible place—full of life, history, and energy. The atmosphere is vibrant, with people, music, and local culture all coming together in one spot. Surrounded by beautiful historic buildings, it’s the perfect place to walk around, relax, and truly feel the heart of the city. A must-visit location that captures the spirit and liveliness of Bogotá.

Plaza Bolivar is the heart of Bogota - with the Supreme Court Palace on one end, Government buildings scattered about and the cathedral on another end. The Plaza is the site of numerous historical and tragic events. Lots of pigeons, vendors, and vibrant life activities, with the Mint and Botero Museum just one block East at the start of La Candelaria. This is a place to appreciate history of Colombia and Bogota’s past. Many very good restaurants just 1-3 blocks East of the Plaza.

Nice place to come and check as a tourist. There are tons of small local places to eat. Just don't get discouraged by the size of small street local restaurants. Make sure you have cash on you because many places won't accept credit cards. This is safe area to walk specially during daytime. Many street sellers so you can get any type of souvenirs you could dream on. Don't forget to negotiate with the street vendors!!

The historic heart of Bogota! Here you can see and learn all about its history! There are lots of street vendors selling souvenirs, drinks or fruits to refresh yourself! Definitely a must visit when being in Bogota!

Plaza de Bolívar A fantastic place for travelers to explore and get a real sense of Bogotá’s history and architecture. Surrounded by impressive, historic buildings, the area is full of character. While the main square is worth seeing, some of the best finds are just off the main path—I discovered excellent coffee shops and bars tucked into the side streets. Take time to wander; that’s where the experience really comes alive

Very pretty the squared, it’s not weekend, but full of people, the near by streets also full with people and vendors. The building there is Colonial architectural style， very special and full of fun.

Nice place. A little crowded and surrounded by street vendors but I suppose that part of the charming. A lot of pigeons too. Very important: Safe place… and beautiful museums near as well as very good restaurants (all prices)
