Life in Bogota

Welcome to Bogota - the capital of Colombia and the country’s largest city! Situated in the heart of the Andes Mountains, this dynamic urban center is where CNG calls home. And there is so much to offer residents and visitors alike!

CNG is nestled in the mountains that form the eastern border of the city in a setting of natural beauty. Bogota’s mountainous topography and high elevation mean winding streets and perpetual fall weather, and those who live here have access to and enjoy colonial architecture, family-friendly parks, engaging museums, modern shopping malls, and top-notch restaurants. In fact, Bogota boasts an impressive culinary scene with fine dining establishments, like Leo and El Chato, making the World’s Best list and eateries, like Andres Carne de Res, offering traditional dishes in a distinctly Colombian ambience.       

In many ways, Bogota has it all – including a short flight to other buzz-generating locations, like Medellín and La Guajira which just made the New York Times 52 Places to Go in 2023 list!
