The Tequendama: a Myth that Traverses Generations

The Salto de Tequendama is an ancestral and magical place, deeply linked to the myth of Bochica, its creator, according to Muisca culture. Although the myth has endured through the narratives of colonizers, it has been distorted by colonial biases and a changing society. The site has suffered deterioration due to accelerated and poorly planned development. Its sacred, cultural, and ecological value has been forgotten. However, in recent years, the GEP Foundation and local community members have taken steps to protect the area and promote civic awareness. This exhibition invites you to reconnect with the roots of this special site, exploring the stories that have shaped this space and our relationship with our territory.
