Explore the Grandeur of the National Capitol in Bogotá

Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car, start your journey from any city in the Pacific Region, such as Buenaventura or Cali. Use the Pan-American Highway (Ruta 25) to head towards Bogotá. The drive will take approximately 8-10 hours, depending on traffic and road conditions. Once you reach Bogotá, follow signs to the city center and use a GPS or map application to navigate to Cl. 10, La Candelaria. Look for parking options nearby, as street parking can be limited.

• Bus

  For those using public transportation, take a long-distance bus from cities in the Pacific Region (like Buenaventura or Cali) to Bogotá. Major bus companies operate this route, and the journey typically takes around 10-12 hours. Upon arrival at the main bus terminal in Bogotá (Terminal de Transporte), you can take a taxi or use the TransMilenio system to reach Cl. 10. Use the TransMilenio route that passes through the 'Museo del Oro' station, which is a short walk from the National Capitol.

• Taxi or Rideshare

  Once you arrive in Bogotá, you can easily use a taxi or rideshare service (like Uber) to reach the National Capitol. Simply provide the address Cl. 10, La Candelaria to the driver. The cost of this ride will vary depending on your pickup location within Bogotá, but expect to pay around 10,000 to 30,000 COP for a ride from the bus terminal to the Capitol.

• Walking

  If you are staying nearby in La Candelaria, the National Capitol is within walking distance from many popular attractions. Simply walk towards Cl. 10, and look for signs directing you to the Capitol. It’s a safe area, but be mindful of your surroundings, especially in the evening.
