If you thought El Dorado was a fairy tale, you are about to be proven wrong. With the sounds of the jungle, your expedition in search of El Dorado begins in the square of the stream of Quevedo. Your narrator is the founder of the city of Bogota, Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada. He will take you as never before into the stories behind the founding of the city and its beginnings. The obsession to discover El Dorado will be evident as you walk the streets of El Palomar del Principe and learn the secrets of the native Chibchas and Muiscas who inhabited this city before the colonists arrived. You will admire the church that gives its name to the neighbourhood of La Candelaria and discover the history of the beginnings of the cathedral and the story of Vasquecito, one of the most important painters of his time.
