Sunday Stroll
The city centre is closed to traffic on Sundays and Bogota suddenly springs to life, with bookstalls and small markets with hand-made crafts sprouting all over the place and cyclists taking to the streets in great numbers. You will also have more time to pay attention to small chapels or churches, some of them having their origins deep into the beginnings of the Spanish presence on the continent.

Tren Turístico de la Sabana (Savana Tourist Train)
Take a trip from Bogota to Nemocón and back to explore the Savannah around Bogota. The train leaves on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays at 0800 from the Estación de la Sabana and at 0900 from Estación de Usaquen in northern Bogota. Tickets should be purchased in advance at the station. The trip usually includes a papayera (a small band playing Columbian music) and food is also available from one of the carriages. Nemocón is normally reached by 1145, and visitors have a couple of hours to stroll through the village and have some lunch before boarding the train for the journey back to Bogota.
