Sightseeing
Take the cable car or the gondola up to the top of the mountain for great views of the city. It is wonderful to do this for a sunset view to see the city during both the day and then watch as the lights come up at night in the city. Skip the restaurants and gift shops, though. A ticket up costs 17.000 pesos colombianos.
