About Bogotá
Bogotá is the capital of Colombia, set on a high Andean plateau and surrounded by mountains such as Monserrate. It is the country's political and business centre, with a growing technology and creative sector, the famous Gold Museum and the colourful historic district of La Candelaria.
Colombia uses Colombia Time, UTC-5, with no daylight saving, and the whole country shares one zone. In practice Bogotá matches New York in winter and is one hour behind it in summer. Being close to the equator, the city sees very little change in day length through the year, with sunrise and sunset at roughly the same times in every season.
