  • Welcome to La Candelaria in Bogotá, Colombia! La Candelaria is Bogotá's vibrant historical center. It is home to Bolivar Plaza, the Gold Museum, and some of the best street art in the world. Today we have enlisted the help of a local to share history with us and uncover a few hidden gems! Ale is an amazing tour guide in Bogotá. Her and her partner offer a variety of tours throughout the city. We have linked this tour below as well as the link to their website where they offer many other tours.
