Monserrate is a prominent mountain that rises to 3,152 meters (10,341 feet) above sea level, overlooking the city of Bogotá, Colombia. It is both a popular tourist destination and a significant religious site. At its summit stands the Sanctuary of Monserrate, a church that has been a pilgrimage site since the 17th century. Visitors can reach the top by hiking up a steep path, taking a funicular railway, or riding a cable car. The vantage point offers breathtaking views of Bogotá and the surrounding region.
