The centre is located Bogota¡¯s historic quarter and the construction of this building enters into dialogue with its urban environment and historical context. The result is a work that subtly invites a journey around its spaces, the experimentation of sensations, and its respectful contemplation. %K Rogelio Salmona| Gabriel Garc¨ªa M¨¢rquez Cultural Centre| Colombian architecture| Bogota¡¯s historic quarter %U http://dearq.uniandes.edu.co/articles/2013/el-centro-cultural-gabriel-garc-a-m-rquez
