A minor milestone for a major Bogotá landmark |
Spanish conquistadores founded Bogotá in 1538 at what's now known as
La Plaza del Chorro - the
Plaza of the Stream, or Fountain, of Water. (They had first fought and killed the Muisca Indians, who had a settlement in the same spot.)
However, for years, the plaza's fountain has been dry.
But in recent days city workers fitted the fountain with a hose, setting the water flowing again.
|
'Plaza of the dry fountain' - but it made a good bench. |
|
It's wet again! |
We'll see how long it lasts.
