Bogotá
Colombia's high-altitude capital (2,640m) has transformed into one of South America's most creative and culturally vibrant cities — with the world's finest collection of pre-Columbian gold at the Gold Museum, Fernando Botero's voluminous sculptures throughout the city, and a restaurant scene in the Zona Rosa and Usaquén neighborhoods that rivals Lima and Buenos Aires.
