This traditional soup \u2013 made from different kinds of potato, shredded chicken, half an ear of corn and a mild herb called <em>guasca<\/em> \u2013 is served with avocado and thick cream to stir in. It\u2019s rich and hearty, but somehow doesn\u2019t leave us too full to sample treats from the bakery nearby, <strong>Postres Olivar<\/strong>. My personal favourite: the classic <em>almoj\u00e1bana<\/em>, a dinner roll\u2013shaped bread made from corn flour and a soft, sweet cheese.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"body_block_15\" class=\"body-block body-block-infographic large-body-media\">\n<div class=\"fs-image\">\n<div class=\"fs-image-container\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/bogota\/\">                                    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/03_bogota_graffiti_CP.jpg\" class=\"infographic-image\" alt=\"Bogota graffiti and street art\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/03_bogota_graffiti_CP.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/03_bogota_graffiti_CP-300x118.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/03_bogota_graffiti_CP-768x302.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/03_bogota_graffiti_CP-1024x402.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/>                                <\/a>            <\/div>\n<div class=\"byline\">\n<p class=\"image-block-credit\">Photos courtesy of Ana Lorenzana &#038; Camilo Perdomo<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"body_block_16\" class=\"body-block text-block body-block-article-content-block\">\n<header class=\"block-header text-block\">\n<h2 class=\"block-title\">Monday, 11:00 am: Downtown Exploration<\/h2>\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"entry\">\n<p>An hour into our <a href=\"http:\/\/bogotagraffiti.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Bogot\u00e1 Graffiti Tour<\/strong><\/a> our guide, Jay, has already imparted a wealth of local knowledge \u2013 and not just about the incredible street art that seems to cover almost every surface.

The tour, which takes place twice a day in English and runs on donations, starts and ends a few blocks from the city\u2019s main square, Plaza de Bolivar, and the historic restaurant <strong>La Puerta Falsa<\/strong>, established in 1816. Here, we can\u2019t resist some more <em>ajiaco<\/em>, plus another Bogot\u00e1 classic: hot chocolate with cheese. You put the wedge directly into the drink and eat it with a spoon once it melts.
