Catedral Primada de Colombia

Catedral Primada de Colombia, nestled in the heart of Bogotá's historic district, Plaza de Bolívar, is a testament to colonial architecture and religious fervor. Dating back to 1823, it stands on a site holding multiple previous churches since 1538, it is the final resting place of Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada, the city's founder. For photo-travelers, the exterior's neoclassical facade provides a striking contrast against Bogotá's vibrant skies, especially during golden hour when the light softens. The interior, adorned with ornate altarpieces and a stunning dome, offers a serene atmosphere. Capture the intricate colonial art pieces and the play of light through the stained glass. Early mornings or late afternoons on weekdays are ideal for photography to avoid crowds and capture the peaceful essence of this spiritual sanctuary.
