It would be hard to overstate the importance of this beautiful home to Latin America's history. While Simon Bolivar was rarely a sedentary man, this was his home and where he laid his head for some time. As the liberator's importance to this region's history is profound, so is the importance of this place that helps give context to the exploits of the man--both political and romantic--and just helps one step into the time with excellent reproductions of what the house likely looked like in the 19th century when it was occupied by Bolivar. Also, the garden is exquisite and probably my favorite in Latin America (see my two photos). It threads the needle quite well between being, on one hand, curated, and on the other a wild collection of the incredible flora endemic to this northern Andes.
This is truly a must do for the historically inclined or for the lover longing for a place of sheer romance. House Quinta de Bolivar is your place.
An English tour guide via a set of headphones is available for a nominal fee.

It was interesting but you have to get the audio guide to really get any sense of what you're looking at. Otherwise its just looking at some rooms in the main house with small plaques giving you a 1/10 of the info you get from the audio guide. The garden was cool on its own without the history. Bolivar also did not stay here many days but it does have a good amount of history packed in those days. I was actually reading his life story at the time completely coincidently. It's a long read and I had not planned a trip to Colombia when I started. I was in the area and thought it would be fun since I was reading his bio. I think that made my experience much better and interesting than had I no clue about the craziness that was the South American revolutions. Worth it if you like this kind of stuff.
