Basilica Sanctuary of the Fallen Lord and Our Lady of Monserrate Audio Guide Tour

Welcome to Monserrate Hill, a famous sight that dominates the capital of Colombia and is an impressive must-visit location for everyone visiting the city. Long before the Spanish colonial conquest, it was used by the indigenous Muisca civilization to worship their Sun God at a height of more than 3,000 meters. Throughout history, it was converted into a catholic pilgrimage site topped by a landmark skyward white church. As you ascend by the funicular or cable car over the emerald wildwoods, be ready for a literally breathtaking view and some lightheadedness. You will then walk up the hill along the Way of the Cross and pass its fourteen stations with life-size sculptures that tell the story of the dramatic last journey of Jesus Christ. Proceeding to the very summit, you will get to the Sanctuary of the Fallen Lord of Monserrate. There, you will contemplate the vivid image of Our Lady of Monserrat, which is venerated at the Montserrat mountain in Catalonia, a namesake of Monserrate, and petitioned for miracles. Next, you will stroll the bustling Artisan Passage of the Craft Market and get a chance to sample local food and drinks for a quick yet well-deserved refreshment. After the tour, don't miss visiting the majestic colonial-era restaurants on the hilltop to savor Colombian dishes and admire the scenic views of Bogotá. No matter what your religion is, join the tour and engage with the unique spiritual harmony of this exceptional place!
