Palacio de San Francisco
The San Francisco Palace offers a monumental façade on Avenida Jiménez. An exterior observation stop fits a downtown walk; access to exhibitions or interiors depends on the current program.
The palace expresses the ambitions of republican Bogotá through its scale and ornament, providing a useful comparison with neighboring older religious buildings. Look across the frontage to understand how it addresses the street. Recent cultural uses add another layer to its history, but a past biennial program should not be assumed to provide present-day interior access.
