Dorado Experiences “Cuando el mito se convierte en Leyenda”

Our name wishes to express through the image the history of the legend of El Dorado and to transmit the qualities that represent us through the history of a myth that, with time, when the Muisca raft was found in the Guatavita Lagoon, became a legend.

History of the Legend:  The Muiscas bathed and adorned in gold their children who would become adults. They put them on a raft that they pushed to the center of the lagoon as an offering.
