O znamenitosti

Hitre informacije: Vrh je na nadmorski višini 3.152 metrov, skoraj 600 metrov višje od središča Bogote. Vzpenjača, dokončana leta 1927, se vzpenja po strmem gorskem pobočju in se na delu poti premika pod kotom 73 stopinj.

Poudarki: Ob jasnih dneh se celotno 7-milijonsko prostranstvo Bogote razprostira spodaj kot sivo-zelen popravljalniški odeja, z gorovjem Vzhodne Kordiljere, ki bledi na obzorju. Bela cerkev iz 17. stoletja na vrhu hrani čaščeni kip "Padlega Gospoda", ki ga romarji obiskujejo že več kot 350 let, njegova temna lesena figura pa privablja tako pobožne kot radovedneže.

Notranji nasveti

Go on a weekday morning to avoid the worst crowds, as weekends can mean 1-2 hour waits for the funicular.
Buy a round-trip ticket for the funicular up but take the cable car down for different views of the city.
Bring a light jacket even on sunny days: temperatures at the summit can be 5-8 degrees cooler than downtown Bogotá.
The small Sunday morning mass at the church is open to anyone and offers a quieter, more intimate experience.
