Gold Museum

Last 12 of November i went to Museo del oro.Is ubicated in the 16 street in the Santander Park, in the historic center of Bogota. It has over 30.000 gold pieces. It was inaugurated the 22 of December 1939.

There are 5 rooms. The first room is about the metals works-arts, the second one is about people and gold in the prehispanic times, the third one is about the cosmos and symbols, the fourth one is about the offering, and the last one is the exploratory.

Also we see how our primitive habitants used to work the metals especially the gold. On Sundays there is a free entrance.

From my point of view, I think is very interactive because we can see now how the relics of the past.Is a very interesting place for visiting were because the scultures and all the works of gold are very nice.
