Simón Bolívar Park & Virgilio Barco Library Tour

We'll start our tour at the Virgilio Barco Public Library, named after President Virgilio Barco Vargas. The library features a unique snail-shaped architecture and reflecting pools outside. Our guide will discuss how architect Rogelio Salmona integrated the building into the park.

Next, we'll explore Simón Bolívar Central Park, established in 1968. This 113-hectare park includes a lake, trails, a bike path, and an event plaza for 80,000 spectators. It is a must-see oasis in Bogotá.

The tour will last around three hours, concluding near the park. Don't miss this opportunity to experience two of Bogotá's iconic landmarks!
