There is no better place to begin ones discovery of Bogotá- indeed of Colombia- than in the historic district downtown. It is here, at the world-renowned Gold Museum, where visitors will be astounded by the gold jewelry and sacred offerings of Colombias native inhabitants. The tour continues at sites in the Candelaria neighborhood near the most famous square in Colombia, the Plaza de Bolívar. The many churches, museums and historical buildings remain as testaments to both Spanish dreams of a New World empire and to the eventual victorious aspirations for independence embodied by "El Libertador," Simón Bolívar.
