Simón Bolívar Central Park
Simón Bolívar Central Park offers a lake, tree-lined green spaces and an outdoor lakeside outlook. This visit covers the central park, one part of the wider metropolitan park system.
The lake and surrounding green spaces offer a different pace from Bogotá’s museum and street visits. The viewing terrace gives the walk a clear focal point, while the surviving Eucharistic temple adds a trace of the 1968 papal visit. Keep the central park distinct from separately managed attractions elsewhere in the park system.
What to look for
A lakeside terrace provides an outlook over the central park’s water.
Tree-lined green spaces frame the outdoor walk.
The Eucharistic temple recalls the 1968 papal visit.
Useful to know
Build the walk around the central lake rather than trying to cover the whole metropolitan park system.
Plan for an outdoor visit; the park’s kiosks do not guarantee shelter from rain.
