Later, we will visit the Mint House and the Botero Donation, where works by the internationally recognized Colombian artist Fernando Botero will be exhibited in various artistic techniques such as painting, drawing, and sculpture. We continue our panoramic tour, passing through the Bolívar Square area (The Primatial Cathedral, Casa de Nariño, Liévano Palace, and the Palace of Justice).
