HANDICRAFTS TRADE SHOW IN BOGOTA

Has anyone ever visited the 'Handicraft' Trade show in Bogota? There is one next month which I am planning to attend.

If anyone has, was it good? I would like to know something about your experience.

I think you mean EXPOARTESANIAS

Its nice to visit to get an idea of handicrafts in Colombia by region. The last day you can get some bargains since they have to get rid of the goods but might be extremely busy!!
Its a well organised show.



If you ever come close to Villa de leyva take a visit aswell to Raquira, which is very close.
There you can buy yourself some cheap and nice handcrafts. (potery, wood)

Have fun.
