On this topic I went to one of the most known shopping centers at the north of the city, it is located in the autopista norte con 184, I went with my mom, father and brother, it is called Santafé, here I investigate about my topic malls, first I went to one of the most visited stores for teenagers, it is called bershka, on here I make an interview to one of the workers on these store, she is called Alejandra, she told me different type of interesting information that we can know some of them were: in Bogotá there are only two bershka stores one in the calle 82 near Andino (shopping center) and other in santafe (where I was), they are not a Colombia store they are international, they had been on the country for about two years, and since they start the sales had been so good, they change their clothes collection every 3 months and the months in which their sales increase are June, July, December and January, my personal experience on here has nice because the staff on the store were so kind and helpful, the only trouble was when I try to take pictures, because they told me their rules don´t aloud them to let other people take pictures.

Falabella
I choose this other mall because I think falabella is one of the places in which you can find what you are looking for, I also investigate about this in santafe, I said that is one of the places in which you can find what you are looking for, I will describe what you can find on here, on the first floor is “women’s floor” you can find perfumes, lipsticks, and other products for your personal care, there are also a lot of clothes of different branches you can find for example rose & pistol, sybilla, leonisa, punto blanco, Tania, sprit, united colors of Benetton, mango, and others, there also you can find shoes of different branches too like: sybilla, via uno, sckechers, and others, in the second floor we find men´s floor you can find on here the same branches of shoes and clothes but with the difference that they are fot men, we also find the technological place, where we can bought computers, ipods, tv, radios, cellphones, phones and other stuff… and in the third floor we find the kids and house place, on one side we found all stuff for kids from toys to clothes, and for the house we find all stuff you use to decorate your place, falabella have of system called “tarjeta CMR” it is like a credit card but only you can used on falabella store, this also help you to travel, and buy things you can´t buy in a specific moment, my personal experience I went so happy, because also apart from being investigating for our project my parents bought me a lot of new clothes, as with the photos and videos, it was impossible to taked because they have exactly the same rules as in bershka store. Zara 
Zara is another mall that is very known because their great kind of clothes, I also investigate about this mall in santafe, here I interview Camilo, he is one of zara workers, he told me that their sales are great, because one of their most great goals is to have an excellent attention with the people that visit the store, and also their great fast services in the pay boxes and in the place where you put the clothes before you bought them, the clothes on here are so expensive, but the way in which is made is so good, so it is a good inversion on yourself, the environment on the store is so nice because it make you feel so comfortable, and is a type of store in which you will never get bored, in my personal experience, I think this is one of the most favorite places for shopping, and I loved the way in which you are treated in this place, in the way of photos and videos the men’s of security doesn´t let me take pictures because they said pictures were only aloud if you were in a “family trip”, so that makes me a little bit angry, but the rest I have a lot of fun, because not only I went to the shopping center for investigating, but also for having fun with my family.

MUSEUMS
-GOLD MUSEUM
-GOLD MUSEUM
This museum has special services for a better way to enjoy the tour, like Visits guided in English, French, German and Italian, store, lending of didactic suitcases and videos, video library and sale of videos, conferences, seminars, audio-visual and technical advising. At the end of the tour, there is a visit to a special place called “Salon Dorado”, that is like the mythical place that represents the different cultures of the Indians.
In my opinion, the Gold Museum is a very interesting museum to meet because if you go to that museum you are going to learn much about the different cultures of Indians and why that cultures made objects with gold or precious stones.
NATIONAL MUSEUM
This museum is very important to Bogota’s history and also in America because is one of the oldest museums of America, such a tool for exploring different topics of history and how people in history discover this and how. This museum was founded in 1823, but in 1945 this museum change of headquarter now is in “El Panoptico”. This museum is divided in three section, the first floor that is dedicated to the anthropology of that time and all the things that people discover in ancient times, The second floor is dedicated to all the colonial history and all the independence history, and in the third floor you can find the three collection of Colombian art. There is a room that is of Modern art in which you can find painting of Alejandro Obregon, Fernando Botero.
In my point of view, this museum is more for people that want to learn about independence and colonial times or people who like much to learn about anthropology.
MUSEO DE LOS NIÑOS
In my point of view this museum is a good example of teaching to the kids and that what they learn is gonna stay in their heads, is a very good way to learn for a kid in that museum.
