Not too far outside of Bogotá is Tequendama Falls (Salto del Tequendama). It’s a popular tourist attraction and an important part of Muisca mythology.
Once you finish admiring the beautiful plaza, you can explore the rest of Monguí, one of Colombia’s Heritage Towns (Pueblos Patrimonio). The town isn’t very big so it doesn’t take very long to walk through the streets.
One of the fun things about Monguí are the handmade footballs that the town is famous for producing. A good place to learn about this industry is at the Football Museum (Museo del Balón). It’s located on the town plaza of this Colombian Heritage Town (Pueblo Patrimonio) and admission is free.
The plaza of Monguí, one of Colombia’s Heritage Towns (Pueblos Patrimonio), is also one of the most beautiful in the country. It’s a wide open space paved with bricks and surrounded by several colonial buildings.
