Description:
Built over three storeys of what was once an infamous prison the Museo Nacional should be on everyone's list of places to visit in Bogota. This castle-type edifice is well laid out and organized and one can while away hours wandering through the permanent exhibitions. Entry is free and so on weekdays there will be hordes of school children, and on weekends plenty of Bogotanos. In the past the Museo Nacional has displayed exhibitions of great importance to Colombia and has hosted international exhibitions as well. Keep an eye in the listings in Bogota to see what is coming up.
