The Guatavita lagoon is situated in the town of Sesquilé, once home to the Chibcha people. It was here that the famous Muisca ceremony of "El Dorado" occurred.

During this ritual, the heir to the Zipazgo throne established himself as the new ruler, earning the title of Zipa. You'll discover the fascinating history of this ceremony and how it has shaped the country's past.

After visiting the lagoon, explore Guatavita town, including Plaza de Toros. You'll see famous sites and hear the story of how the original town was submerged by the Tominé Reservoir.

Visit the CASA LOCA, a unique upside-down house perfect for fun photos. Finally, try a regional dish at a well-known restaurant in the area.
