The addresses in Bogota are divided in careers or avenues (in spanish "carreras o avenidas")(Cr)or(Av), that go from south to north and streets(in spanish "calles")(Cl), that go from east to the West, each block careers or street is of approximately 20 yards containing as well 99 units (the even units always are going to be alongside right of the street in parallel sense to the east or the hills, in spanish call it "cerros orientales"). In some places, each block careers or street can be longer or shorter and numbers are used to find the places, for example, to arrive at Bolívar's square, you find it by the following address Cr 7 N 10-00 and if from this place we want to go to the national museum that is located in the following address : cr 7 28 - 66 we must walk towards the north 18 blocks and for being even you will find it to the right side of the race in parallel to hills.
