When you arrive in Bogota, there’s a place that everyone will start recommending to you as soon as your feet touch the ground in Bogota: La Candelaria. And you ask yourself, “what is La Candelaria?” Well, here I will tell you about this beautiful, enchanting and historic site in central Bogota. La Candelaria of Bogota is an area that is composed of 5 neighbourhoods that cover the Historic Center of Bogota and that have been described as having both cultural and historical importance. And this isn’t for nothing: it is here that the city of Bogota was founded in the year 1538. The history of La Candelaria is considerable and interesting, and so each of its paved streets bears a name from its history. Among the names that grab my attention are La Calle Pecado Mortal (Mortal Sin Street), which is so called because of an old man who used to wear a cape and hat and ask for money from those who were known to be in mortal sin. La Calle del Silencio (the Street of the Silence) which was the the quietest street in the Colonial times. These are just a couple of the many streets that bring La Candelaria’s history to life every day. In many of the original great houses that are part of La Candelaria, today there are museums, theaterss, bars, restaurants and various touristic spots that surely could be of interest to you; you can find these sites in our touristic map of La Candelaria. My recommendations in La Candelaria To eat: If you’re looking for somewhere to try typical dishes of Bogota, La Puerta Falsa (The False Door) is perfect for you. This restaurant serves exquisite and popular tamales, ajiaco (pronounced “ah-hee-a-ko”), which is a thick soup with delicious flavours and strips of chicken, traditional hot chocolate with almojábanas (fried bread) and cheese, aguapanela (cane sugar-water) and the un-missable deserts, all of which have been served by this restaurant for more than two centuries, delighting even the most demanding palates. Do you want to “rumbear” or, in other words, go dancing? There are many places to dance in La Candelaria, Bogota, but I’ll recommend two locations to you. The first is Quiebracanto: this club – bar caters to those wanting to dance Salsa and hosts live concerts. The other place is Goce Pagano (Pagan delight!), with more varied music and a familiar ambiance, which is a good place to enjoy all kinds of dance. My last recommendation, which is important, is that you don’t display objects of value in La Candelaria, as you’ll hear from the lips of many Bogotanians, “no des papaya” (literally, “don’t give papaya”, which means don’t give pickpockets and thieves an easy target). This is because there are lots of folks just waiting to spot an opportunity, that is to say, someone “giving papaya”. Also, be careful if you are considering walking on quiet and dark streets, because in Bogota there are many homeless people who live on the street.

Give yourself up to its unique streets. Many of the buildings of the La Candelaria neighborhood, the majority of which were built in colonial and Republican-era styles, have been declared properties of historical and cultural interest. There are around 500 artistic institutions or groups, museums, research centers, theaters, libraries, and universities in this area of the historical center of Bogotá. Also a local gastronomic hub.

Eusaquillo (today the Jet of Quevedo) was a resting place of the Muisca ruler called Zipa. It is believed that in this place Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada founded, on August 6, 1538, what would become the City of Bogotá. The town, takes the name of the church of the Candelaria (like the neighborhood, which begins to form since 1960) .1 In April 1539, the formal foundation was developed in the current Plaza de Bolívar. There the original layout of the city is established, establishing the Plaza Mayor and the place of the main church, which later would be the Primada Cathedral of Bogotá.
