Catedral San Juan Bautista de la Estrada, Postmodern cathedral in La Estrada district, Bogotá, Colombia.

The cathedral features a rectangular layout measuring 60 meters deep, 12 meters wide, and 10 meters high, with a capacity for 800 seated and 400 standing visitors.

On August 6, 2003, Pope John Paul II designated this former parish church as the cathedral of the newly established Diocese of Engativá.

The interior walls display a zigzag design pattern with white marble surfaces, while stained glass windows depict scenes from John the Baptist's martyrdom.

The parish office opens Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, with additional hours on Saturday and telephone lines 3117907 and 2508141.

The bell tower stands independently from the main structure, separated by a three-meter gap, with Vatican and Colombian flags adorning the facade.
