Colombia is full of street art. Bogot\u00e1 and Medell\u00edn, in particular, are known for their beautiful murals, but you’ll also be able to enjoy more street art in other places around the country. Sop\u00f3, for example: my village off the beaten path where you can take a beautiful graffiti route<\/strong><\/a> you can walk. But you can also enjoy unusual murals in other villages and towns. Among them in Sogamoso. The most famous town in the region of Lago de Tota in Boyac\u00e1. The gateway to Colombia’s highest lake, the most beautiful p\u00e1ramo in the world and the ball village of Mongu\u00ed. Do you love street art and like to go off the beaten path? Then Sogamoso is for you.<\/p>\n

Sogamoso: the capital of Sugamuxi province<\/h2>\n
\n

Sogamoso is located some 230 kilometers northeast of Bogot\u00e1 at an altitude of nearly 2,600 meters and has a population of over 120,000. As the capital of the Muisca empire<\/strong><\/a> you will find street art as well as the Sun Temple in the Archaeological Museum. But more on that later. Sogamoso is a fine little town from which to explore the area. And while I personally prefer to stay in one of the surrounding authentic villages, Sogamoso is perfect for when you don’t have your own transportation or little time.<\/p>\n

Today I take you through the street art in this town.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
