Eclectic, vibrant, passionate, artistic...In short, 2600 meters closer to the stars...This is Bogota. One of the biggest cities in Latinamerica. A very sexy place, paradise of cosmopolitan people, this city will not let you down on your desire for some latin life.
The city, with 10 million habitants is definitely huge. But if you are a tourist, and planning on coming, be ready to get the hottest neighborhoods of the city.
The most secure and funny area of the city is located between Calle (street) 67 and Calle 140. That is the cool zone of the city. That is called the NORTH SIDE . (An that is the place where you definitely would want to be) In this area, you will find malls (Centro Comercial) like Andino , located on the corner of 85 st and 11 Carrera (a different denomination for streets). Around this mall, there are two more walking distance: Atlantis and the brand new Retiro. Here, you will find stores like Versace, Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Zara, Mango, and others.
This is the hottest place for dancing. Many good bars include La Sala (Electronic Music) , and Gotica (4 different spaces). If you are looking for some good diner, take a walk to 93 Park (Parque de la 93), and give it a try to one of the greates hamburguers in the world...(Not McDonalds..) The place is called El Corral, and has some hamburguers you have never ever dreamed off.
Also, if you like chill out ambients, go to Il Panino, or ask for Gato Negro, an awesome restaurant.
