Bolívar Square has been at the center of the country's history for centuries. It used to be a public circus and bull market, among other things, and a wide variety of cultural and social events are still held here. Buildings such as the Palacio Liévano, the Capitol, and the Cathedral frame this public space, which is decorated with thousands of colorful lights every year for Christmas. La Plaza de Bolívar proudly bears the name of the liberator of Colombia. In the center of the square one can see a statue of the eponymous Simón Bolívar, which was donated by the Italian artist Pietro Tenerani in the year 1846. This square originally was an enormous market square surrounded by colonial houses. Today it is encircled by the Office of the Mayor of Bogota, the Palace of Justice, and the Chapel of the Tabernacle, among other buildings of civil importance for the city.
