Location

[edit]

The station is located in southern Bogotá, specifically on Avenida Caracas with Calles 1ª and 2ª sur.

It serves the Sevilla, San Antonio, and Policarpa Salavarrieta neighborhoods.

History

[edit]

At the beginning of 2001, the second phase of the Caracas line of the system was opened from Tercer Milenio to the intermediate station Calle 40 Sur. A few months later, service was extended south to Portal de Usme.

The station is named Hortúa due to its proximity to the medical center of the same name.
