Located in the City center, this is a great place to just chill out after a visit to either Montserrat or the Gold museum.Historical and surround by lush flora. I took many photos there, just right to remember.

I especially enjoyed the gardens (but note that the walkways are cobbled and uneven). Even a few interesting birds (masked flowerpiercer, Great thrush, a hummingbird, and House Wrens. There are some signs with both English and Spanish explanations. I probably should have rented the audio set!You can get here from the Las Aguas Transmilenio, not a long walk at all and seems safe during the day (the pot smokers are to the left up the hill, stick to the right). If you go down Calle 19A at the corner of KR 4E is a pink building which is a good restaurant for lunch (Mexican-ish).

This house museum is very near Montseratte. It is just a couple of blocks from the base of the funicular, although you have to walk a couple of blocks around the back, including down a steep hill. Admission is very inexpensive and free for those over 60. We paid just a couple dollars for the English audio phones, which greatly enhanced the visit. The narration covered the history of the home, as well as a lot of information on Boliver, the Liberator, especially his time in this home.The house has been meticulously restored and contains many original Boliver pieces. The gardens are lovely.The home was unique for us?

Somewhat small museum, but lovely furnishings and a garden surrounding it all. No English explanation, but a visual feast.

We bumped into the Quinta de Bolivar as we explored the area after visiting Mount Monseratte. Entrance was 3,000 pesos and walking around la Quinta had shades of visiting Monticello, but not quite as extravagant. There was some history about Bolivar, his day to day life and his influences, as well as his gardens.

My 18 year old son and I stopped by here after visiting Mount Monserratte. We both enjoyed it thoroughly. It is very inexpensive to visit this former home of Colombia's liberator, Simon Bolivar. The cost was only 3000 COP$ and the audio set was only an additional 1000 COP$. RENT THE AUDIO SET - IT IS WELL WORTH IT. It is available in English and is full of great information. There are numbered stations throughout the property and the audio tour takes you from station 1 on to Station 13. I now know what an incredible individual Bolivar was and I have this museum to thank for it. And, besides, how could you not visit the former home of the George Washington of Colombia? Very easy to get to. Ask for directions to the teleferico/funicular for Mt. Monserratte and on your way to the funicular you will pass the mansion on your right just before the top of the hill which is where the entrance to the funicular is located. Allow yourself about 2 hours for this site. Have a light sweater or something handy because there is a lot of shade at the house and it can get a bit chilly (plus, the altitude is a bit higher there than down in the center of the city).

The 5* is for the gardens of the property, which are an amazing display of flora. Bromeliads sprout from the branches of walnut trees. All kinds of fuchsia and brugmansias and roses and camellias and more bloom in a cacophony of color in this temperate rain forest. I have never seen anything quite like it in my travels. Watch your step as the narrow walkways can get slick in the dampness. As a museum it would only get 2*. The exhibits are minimal and poorly explained. Still, if you are into plants this is a must visit in Bogota.

Even though my Spanish is decent, I got nothing from this museum. It is poorly organized, quite confusing, and I couldn't determine what was important to see. Apparently their declaration of independence is in there - you would think it would be obvious. Skip this museum

This may not be one of the main attractions, the Casa Museo is quite small but you will see some original dresses and furniture. It is very close to the Cerro de Monserrate, so if you have an hour to spare, it is worth a visit. Free on Sundays

I could only see from the outside from the main plaza, the place is not always opened to the public, too bad.
