Mosquera, Municipality in Cundinamarca Department, Colombia.
The municipality of Mosquera extends over 105.9 square kilometers at an elevation of 2,516 meters in the Western Savanna Province of Cundinamarca Department.
Tomás Cipriano de Mosquera established the municipality on September 27, 1861, by separating it from the existing town of Funza.
The Muisca people developed agricultural practices in this region by cultivating maize, potatoes, and beans while maintaining trade networks with neighboring territories.
The municipality contains an urban area of 14.55 square kilometers and maintains direct transportation connections with the capital city of Bogotá.
In 2022, a natural phenomenon caused white foam to spread across parts of the municipality, creating temporary concerns among the local population.
