Enjoy the calm atmosphere at General Archive of the Nation while delving into the books, magazines and other literary resources. You may be able to play some board games as well.

General Archive of the Nation is an ideal place to begin discovering La Candelaria. This collection of books comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other attractions like Monserrate, Plaza de Bolívar, and Bogotá Botanical Garden to fully appreciate what the area has to offer.
