Bogotá

Bogota is a huge city of about 10 million people.

We took a bike tour on Sunday and cycled about 15km on car free roads seeing some of the nicer areas. For 50 years roads have been closed to all cars on Sunday and everybody was out walking, skate boarding or cycling. Lots of energy.

We also took the funicular up 500m to 3200m to Monserate a church on the hill above the city for nice views over the town. We added a few new birds to our list here too.

We also visited a free art gallery where the Colombian artist Boltero gave his collection of own work and wider artists such as Picaso, Dali and even a Henry Moore.Read more
