刘易斯‧安吉尔‧阿伦戈图书馆印象
-
Great library with an incredible selection of books. Fine bookstore at the entrance. Don't miss the view from the sixth floor, you have to take the elevator to the top floor. It's one of the best views of the Candelaria. The concert series is the best chamber music series, for my money, in Bogotá.

The library complex is enormous, full of intellectual entertainment. There is also a nice cafe Diletto (espresso for 1900). There are computers with (slow) internet and book stalls with special discount prices.
-
is a good place to find any book has a rather large collection, is a spacious and quiet place; the attention of the staff is not the best but after having the book in hands everything else does not matter.
-
If you think this is only a library, forget about it. You will enter a beautiful gallery with a lot of work of art and big and luminous spaces.
-
There was an exhibition here by a local photojournalist with historical pictures of Bogota. We really enjoyed this exhibition as well as made use of the free internet.

Take advantage of this library in the heart of historic Bogotá. Close to Plaza Bolivar, the Botero museum, and other wonderful places to check out. The library has an exhibit of black and white photos of Bogotá in the 1930s, 40s and 50s by Foto Sady, a famous photographer from Bogotá. He was the last photographer to photograph Gaitan before he was assassinated on April 9th, 1948 which led to the semi-destruction of Bogotá by rioters protesting his death. The library has great resources and take the elevator to the 5th floor where you get an incredible view of Monserrate and the northern part of the city. Hours 8 am - 8 pm M-Sat and 8 am - 4 pm Sun.

I was very impressed by the Foto Sady exhibit. You'll see signs leading to it after you get through the entrance. It's a great way to learn about the Bogotazo, an important part of Colombian history.

If you like chamber music, come here. The hall's acoustics are the best in the city and the seats are like sitting in First Class. The library also hosts many fine exhibits in addition to having the largest book collection in the country. Great views of the city on the top level.

This a huge library. Most tourists are not likely to be in Bogota to sit in a library to read but a visit here can be informative. There is an interesting exhibit about the economic ups and downs of Colombia. There are also temporary exhibits. In December of 2013 there was one about the history of the Swiss in Colombia.

what i like the most about this library is definitely the concerts that it offers all year around - the best groups from all over the world play in this beautifully designed hall. If you are in Bogota, check their program and make sure you book in advance because unfortunately it is a small venue.
