About About the place

Casa de Nariño is a neoclassical palace in Bogotá, Colombia, serving as the primary office and residence of the President. Completed in 1908, it stands on the site of a former residence belonging to Antonio Nariño, a key figure in Colombia's independence movement. While not always open for public residence, guided tours are available with prior online reservation, providing access to its ornate rooms and historical artifacts. The palace is heavily guarded, reflecting its importance as a center of national power. The surrounding plaza is a focal point for civic events and demonstrations.

We were so excited to visit this place but were thoroughly disappointed while reaching and looking at the mismanaged affair. The place was crowded with tourists and there was no system to arrange them. The staff was also very rude.

This city is so beautiful and has so many ancient buildings that to witness its real beauty, you need to go for a free walking tour which covers all the iconic places and its history is told by the guide. You can check out the cute little cafes along the way and enjoy the street food. Little tip - wear comfortable shoes.

The cathedral is hundreds of years old and has a magnificent architecture. The murals and the walls are simply stunning. We got a chance to witness the prayer ceremony and it was divine. Do visit this place and do enjoy it.

This is an excellent restaurant which is the new opening in the town and also the talk of the town. The delicacies prepared here are awesome and delicious. The chefs have all come from outside and serve the best of gourmet food. It was exotic and tasty array of food and I highly recommend this place to everyone. Just awesome!!. While making our itinerary, we included this place towards the end and thought that incase we are behind time, we will skip it. But thank God, we didn’t because it was one of the greatest places to visit. Easily accessible, conveniently located, gorgeous location and the easy navigation for the entire tour of this place made it much more fun and enjoyable. I will suggest everyone to please visit this place.
