In this post we cover some of the neighborhoods we've explored in Colombia. To help you choose where to stay when traveling there.

Chapinero


When you hear Chapinero think about food, food, food.

Chapinero is culinary paradise, a lot of dining options catering to almost everybody. If you're a foodie this is a good place to stay. It's a neighborhood where affluent areas seamlessly blend with working-class districts, offering a snapshot of Bogotá's complex social fabric. A lot of trendy cafes and restaurants cater to the urban elite, while also being home to some street markets and local eateries serving authentic Colombian cuisine at affordable prices.

La Candelaria


This is a cute one, the colonial architecture is quite instagrammable with its cobblestone streets, drawing visitors eager to immerse themselves in Bogotá's history. As one of Bogotá's oldest districts, La Candelaria struggles with issues like poverty and gentrification, impacting its residents and cultural landscape. Despite its tourist appeal, it's essential to recognize the complexities of La Candelaria's identity beyond its postcard-worthy aesthetics.

Zona G (Gourmet Zone)


More food ? Yes, absolutely yes. There is no way you can go to Bogota without getting good gastronomic vibes.

Zona G has a reputation as Bogotá's gastronomic epicenter, from upscale restaurants, gourmet offerings to street food and local eateries. While indulging in culinary extravagance is undoubtedly a treat, we think its also important to explore hidden gems to gain understanding of Bogotá's culinary vibes.

Zona T (T Zone)


Zona T is best for nightlife and fancy shopping. International brands dominate the retail landscape and its establishments cater to a select clientele, Zona T's authenticity and sense of community may be overshadowed by commercial interests. Good for a quick visit or longer if you like shopping.

Usaquén


Tranquility is the word we use to describe Usaquen.

This charming place offers a welcome respite from Bogotá's urban hustle.

However, it is transforming into a trendy place catering to tourists and expats, so it might not last long. As boutique cafes and artisan markets proliferate, Usaquén grapples with the tension between economic development and cultural heritage.
