Chapinero is a middle class neighborhood in Bogota located north of La Candelaria. After I left my hotel at the La Candelaria neighborhood and ended up at Chapinero, I had finally found out where most of the Colombian city-dwellers lived. The Chapinero neighborhood is filled with high rise luxury apartments surrounded by many restaurants, bars, boutique shops, and shopping malls.<\/p>\n
