In this short input we would like to
let you know where Promotora Neptuno
is located and what’s going on there. Of course there are also possibilities
for our clients to visit this nice colonial neighborhood.
So, what’s up in Usaquén?
Usaquén is one of the most
traditional quarter of Bogotá and is located in the north-east of the city. In
the 16th century it was actually a suburb of Bogotá, but with the
fast increase it got one of the various quarters of Bogotá. But the former
suburb could keep their exclusivity and the small and picturesque alleys lent
itselves to a calm and nice walks and offers a totally different atmosphere,
than the lively main Shoppingroads, further south in Bogotá. A bunch of
restaurants, bars and shops are seated here and let you feel to walk through a
southeuropean city, also concerning the prices. Usaquén is also the business
district of Bogotá and unites the building in colonial with the modern
skyscrapers.
The main sights of the historical
center of Bogotá are the church ‘Iglesia Santa Barbara´, which was built in
1665, furthermore the shopping center ‘Centro Comercial Hacienda Santa
Barbara’, which counts to one of the most exalted of the city and is already
prepared in the end of October with hundreds of chains of lights for Christmas.
Finally there is the ‘Plaza de Usaquen´, which represent the center of the
market ‘Mercado de las Pulgas de Usaquén’, which takes places every sunday and
also on Mondays, if it is a holiday. Here you can buy typical colombian food
like different kind of arepas, Empandas, Obladas, a big variety of bags, yewellery,
leatherproducts, herbs and alternatives cures, everything mostly handcrafted.
Our clients can get an insight in
this quarter by joining the Fullday Citytrip of Bogotá, which starts in the
south, at the ‘Plaza Bolivar’ and ends with the ‘Centro Comercial Hacienda
Santa Barbara’ in Usaquén, in the north of the city. A fantastic possibility
for our visitiors, to see the great variety of Bogotá.
