The Casa de Nariño is the official residence of the President of Colombia and the seat of government. Its inauguration was on July 20, 1908, by General Rafael Reyes. It was built on the grounds of the birthplace of Antonio Nariño; therefore, it bears the name of the hero of Independence. It is an example of colonial architecture.  Inside, it houses important works of art and historical furniture. It is a symbol of Colombian history and politics.

Palace of Justice

The Palace of Justice of Bogota was built in the 1970s as the seat of the judiciary of Colombia. It is the building where the high courts of Colombia operate and its full name is the Alfonso Reyes Echandia Palace of Justice.

Liévano Palace

It is the building where the Mayor's Office of Bogota is located. Its construction began in 1843, and its architectural style is influenced by the French Renaissance style and was declared a National Monument in 1984. As an act of commemoration for the 450th anniversary of the founding of the city, 24 fixed plaques were installed on the second floor of the Liévano Palace, commemorating various events that have marked the history of Bogota.

Bolívar Square

It is the most important and historic square in the city. Its construction was started by the Spaniards in 1539 and the first houses of the city were built around it.

Currently, the Plaza de Bolivar is surrounded by the main buildings of Bogota: the National Capitol, the Primatial Cathedral, the Mayor's Office of Bogota, the Cabildo, the Palace of Justice and the Museum of Independence.
