Product Description

Product Description
At 10,000 feet, the Eastern Ridges (Cerros Orientales) of the city of Bogota are a dominant feature of the city's landscape. These mountains are an integral part of the public space of the city and influence its culture as directly as any river or ocean shoreline. This book presents them in a new way, one that recognises their remarkable natural features and appreciates their enormous ecological potential. On foot, and at times from the air, it allows us to enter into a world that conserves a remarkable amount of High Andean tropical vegetation and wildlife within an urban area of 7 million. This book aims to encourage a much-needed reappraisal of these ridges, regarded as sacred by the indigenous Muisca society, and still a natural wonder for visitors and the residents of Bogota.

About the Author

Working together with noted photographers and writers, he has been the creator, designer and publisher of over 100 illustrated books on different aspects of Colombian culture. An architectural graduate of Los Andes University in Bogota and a graphic designer with an honorary degree from the Jorge Tadeo Lozano University in Bogota, he has also designed corporate logos for over 200 companies, directed journalistic programs on television and produced documentary films. His books have won outstanding national and international awards. Cristobal von Rothkirch has received a German photojournalism award, the Honor Diploma of the Leipzig Fair, for his 2001 Villegas book Alta Montana, as well as wide recognition as a photojournalist in his adopted country of Colombia.
