Parque nacional Enrique Olaya Herrera, National park in Santa Fe district, Bogotá, Colombia

The park spans 400 hectares across the eastern hills of Bogotá, featuring diverse ecological zones between 2,600 and 3,150 meters above sea level.

President Enrique Olaya Herrera inaugurated the park on August 6, 1934, and it received national monument status from Colombia in September 1996.

The Rafael Uribe Uribe fountain, created by Spanish sculptor Victorio Macho in 1940, stands as a central monument within the park grounds.

The park includes multiple sports facilities, including field hockey courts, a roller skating rink, and a children's theater that seats 300 people.

A Swiss-gifted clock tower sits at the end of a pedestrian path decorated with benches and lanterns, leading to a small plaza.
