Although there are well-known places such as the Bogotá Museum, the National Museum or the Gold Museum, the invitation from the Table and the culture sector is to give yourself the opportunity to visit, also, other spaces perhaps not so frequented.
Do not miss the opportunity to go, for example, to the Museum of the Self-Constructed City, where there will be a freestyle show with local artists. You can also go to the Castillo de las Artes and enjoy a performance cabaret directed by the artsiat Manu Mojito and with the participation of LGBTIQ+ artists.
