Museo del Oro

The Museo del Oro brags the biggest collection of pre-Columbian gold in the whole of Latin America. Visitors can browse as many as 33,000 individual gold artifacts ranging from earrings to immaculately crafted masks and figures. Th museum is a piece of El Dorado itself - the mythical city of gold that captivated the imagination of European explorers for more than two centuries.

Gold was sacred to the native people, and together with pottery, stone, shell, wood, textile and archaeological objects, the museum is a lively introduction to the life and thought of the different societies that inhabited in Colombia before the Europeans arrived.

Browsing all the three floors of exhibitions offers deeper insights into the cultural development. The climax of the museum is the collection housed in a huge vault on the third floor. This glittering display of 8000 pieces of gold is an assault to one's senses.

The museum is easily accessible by bus as well as taxis. Entry to the museum is free on Sundays. So, if you want to save some money, be ready to face the crowd!
