LAGUNA DE GUATAVITA
BE PART OF THE LEGEND OF EL DORADO!
Guatavita is a small colonial town about an hour and a half away, north of Bogotá. In this place is located the sacred lagoon of Guatavita, surrounded by native forests. The ‘Laguna de Guatavita’ is the site where the ritual that started the legend of El Dorado was celebrated. The legend says that the ‘Cacique’ (chief) covered his entire body with gold dust on its waters. Also deposited from a ceremonial raft were offerings of gold and emeralds in the depths of the lake. He then plunged into the sacred waters and thereby gained the favor of the gods. Enjoy this mystical place and take in its landscapes and majestic nature.
