International Book Fair in Bogota

There is no cultural and industrial event in the entire Latin American region as large and important as the Bogotá International Book Fair. Since its creation in 1988, it has been the most relevant editorial and cultural event in Colombia.

This enormous event is geared toward many interested people: authors, publishers, distributors and representatives of the graphic industry, national and international readers, intellectuals, and friends of books who hail mostly from the Andean region, Central America, the Caribbean region, and the United States. The Fair turns Colombia into the largest library in the world and a magical place where everyone finds what he or she is after. Every year, a different country is invited to be the principal character of the event.

Has any of you living in Bogota visited the Book fair? I'm going tomorrow or the day after tomorrow and post some pics and info.
This year I've been told there are catchy must-see features!

I hope you will have a great time at the book fair. In Germany we have a book fair too and I hope that I have enough time to visit it one day.

When does the book fair take place in Germany? I bet it must be awesome, the best ever!

This year's event in Bogota was great. Its closure is today, and I must say it was fantastic! Lots of things to do, see and, of course, read! I wonder how many books are there in the world... Millions! We even need more than a day to go through all the stands carefully!

Damn, I didn't go. What was there which is worth recalling?
