Ricaurte, Cundinamarca, Administrative municipality in Cundinamarca Department, Colombia.
Ricaurte is a municipality in Cundinamarca that spreads across several rural settlements and an urban center. The area sits at low elevation with a warm climate and combines farming zones with populated neighborhoods.
The area was originally known as Peñalisa District before changing its name and briefly merging with a larger city. Independent administration was later restored and has structured the area on its own since then.
The marketplace serves as the social heart where farmers and local traders gather on specific days to sell their goods and connect with their neighbors.
The best way to explore is on foot through the center to discover the market and local shops. Moving between the rural areas takes more time since they are spread across greater distances.
The territory consists of several named rural sub-divisions, each with its own local character. These smaller communities together form the mosaic of the area's identity.
