Ciudad Montes Park

Ciudad Montes Park is a public green space in Puente Aranda that extends along the Fucha River and offers varied activities. The grounds feature sports fields, playgrounds, walking paths, and open green areas available to different visitors.

The grounds were part of the Montes Hacienda in the 18th century before later coming under the ownership of Antonio Nariño, a leading figure in Colombia's independence movement. This history connected the land to major political events in the nation's early formation.

The Colonial House Museum within the grounds displays architectural features from when it served as Antonio Nariño's political prison in 1803. The building tells the story of a critical moment in Colombia's past and attracts visitors interested in national history.

The park is easily reached by public transportation and offers multiple entry points for visitors. Best visited on foot or by bicycle, particularly in early morning hours when it is less crowded.

The park houses specialized sports facilities including a baseball stadium, beach volleyball courts, and a skating rink. This diverse mix of sports amenities makes it an important hub for different recreational activities in the area.
