Looking across Avenida Jimenez De Quesada to the headquarters of El Tiempo, the largest daily newspaper in Colombia.


Stopping on Carrera 7 where Santiago told us about a period of time in Colombia called the Bogotazo and La Violencia.


A memorial to Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, a Colombian politician who was assassinated in April 1948 and led to the Bogotazo 10-hour riot that left much of downtown Bogotá destroyed. This subsequently led to a violent period of political unrest called La Violencia from 1948 to 1958.


An eclectic and colourful mural as we walk down a side alley.


Plazoleta del Rosario with a statue of Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada, a Spanish explorer and conquistador in northern South America and the founder of the city of Bogotá in 1538.


Walking down the colourful Carrera 2.
