“Villa de Leyva, heritage town that transports in time for its colonial air”
To be in Villa de Leyva is to challenge time and transport yourself to the colonial past. This beautiful municipality located 3 hours from Bogotá, is a capsule that catches us in the nineteenth century.
Its geography is very appreciated by the large amount of ammonites (prehistoric marine fossils) that underlie the soil, reminding us that millions of years ago it was a territory dominated by the ocean.
Do not stay without knowing one of the colonial jewels of the country, it was also a very important site in the consolidation of the independence of the country from the Spanish Kingdom.
On the way back, you will know the municipality of Ráquira, which is a living stamp of the Colombian Andean culture.

!Villa de Leyva is a magical place, as detained in time tells the story of colonization and emancipation, one of the most representative sites is the Monastery of Santo Eccehomo built in 1620 by the Dominicans, who evangelized these lands through pedagogy and preaching. | |
“A beautiful town !!! ”

Villa de Leyva is a beautiful little town located in Boyacá, 3 hours from Bogotá. From the northern portal you can take a blue bus from the company La Reina, it costs $ 25,000 and leaves you at the terminal, from there to the main square are 2 blocks. If the plan is to rest I recommend going during the week that the town is only although the bad thing is that there are many interesting places to know how bakeries and restaurants that only open on weekends (Pastelería La Francesa – Milhoja) I recommend 100% to do the tour to the places of interest by bike. I rented 1 for $ 6,000 pesos an hour, they gave me all the instructions to get to the terracotta house, the blue wells and the fossil. Tour that I made in 3 and a half hours. The terracotta house and the fossil I found very boring, the tickets cost $ 10,000 and $ 8,000 respectively. I would not go back or recommend visiting those places. For the first is a house without much interest, which in fact the architect that the design recently raised the value of the entrance with the purpose that people do not pay and do not enter. And the other is a fossil of a marine reptile found 41 years ago by some farmers, but the guide does not explain much more. On the other hand the Pozos Azules is a place that must be visited. They call it also desert, where there are some wells of water in shades between green and blue precious, some very beautiful trees, the landscape is spectacular. It is simply beautiful !!! The entrance costs $ 10,000 pesos, it is a 45-minute tour if you walk or less by bicycle or ATV that you also rent. It is a magical place, with many beautiful places to meet and enjoy the best desserts and meals. | |
