The Museo de Oro in Bogota is one of the most important Gold Museums in the world, containing a massive collection of pre-Colombian artifacts. Me and Flavie wanted to take it all home as it was so shiny and beautiful (like magpies) but it's no wonder as the collection is worth over $200 million! We learnt about all the techniques of goldsmith's that the pre-Colombian tribes people used to make the pieces and that form the basis of the art today.
Here's some pictures of our favourites from the tour...
