We will pick you up at your hotel to go towards the Savanna of Bogotá. In this place is located the sacred lagoon of Guatavita, ceremonial place that keeps the history of Muiscas and the legend of El Dorado. We will go to the house of preparation of the cacique, the head of the tribe, who had to do a ceremony in which he had to throw gold and emeralds to the center of the lagoon. Later, we will follow an indigenous path to see the flora and fauna of the place. We will listen to the words of the guide, who will talk about the history before and after the Spanish colonization, in addition to the gold drainage process. Then, we will return to the city of Bogotá, ending the activity.
