Monserrate, Bogotà
Perhaps Colombia’s most iconic viewpoint is Monserrate, a mountain rising to the east of Bogotà topped by a church. Accessible via cable car or funicular railway, Monserrate’s epic panorama of Colombia’s capital—even of the distant snowcapped Andes volcanos on a clear morning—is pretty much unbeatable if you’re looking for a city view in Colombia.
