Also called Zona Rosa, this area is filled with bars, restaurants and clubs. Also near two major malls (both with cinemas).
If you don't have time to go to the most famous club (Andrés Carne de Res), a good option is to go to Andres DC, its smaller version in Zona T, but with 3 floors of dance floor + restaurant service. The menu is the same.

Although a small church with little around (except a couple of really nice restaurants for a romantic dinner with a view and a little traditional (but nowadays very touristy) market, the actual interest of going to Monserrate lays in the amazing views of Bogota. Best done during the morning (less probability of clouds), best combined with a visit of La Candelaria, you can reach it by funicular or foot (if you're in a particularly great shape).
