Ubaté, Mountain municipality in Cundinamarca, Colombia.
Located at 2,556 meters elevation in the Ubaté-Chiquinquirá Valley, this town stands 97 kilometers north of Bogotá with temperatures between 12 and 20 degrees Celsius.
Bernardo de Albornoz established the Villa de San Diego de Ubaté in 1592, in an area previously inhabited by Muisca indigenous communities.
The Gothic-style cathedral and San Luis Convent reflect the architectural heritage of this region, known as the Milk Capital of Colombia.
The municipality connects with neighboring provinces including Boyacá to the north, Rionegro to the west, and maintains regular transportation links with Bogotá.
The name Ubaté derives from the native term Ebate, which translates to Bloodied Land in the indigenous language of the region.
