Duitama, Administrative center in Boyacá Department, Colombia
Duitama stretches along the Chicamocha River within the Cordillera Oriental mountains at an elevation of 2,530 meters above sea level.
The territory was governed by cacique Tundama until 1539, when Spanish forces took control after a series of military confrontations in the region.
The Pueblito Boyacense recreates traditional Colombian architecture through its buildings, demonstrating the construction methods from different historical periods of the region.
The Pan-American Highway connects Duitama to major Colombian cities, with regular bus services operating between Bogotá, located 195 kilometers to the southwest.
In 1995, this Colombian municipality made history by becoming the second Latin American location to host the UCI Road World Championships.
