The day, in short
A first afternoon in the capital. We visit the lobby of the National Theater, finished in 1897, and the Gold Museum with its pre-Columbian pieces.
Then the Central Market, the Metropolitan Cathedral and an art gallery for souvenirs, with a drive past the university, the old train station and the Legislative Assembly.
