Gold Museum

The Restaurant...thats all ill say! The museum is insightful to the norms of the areas and some insight to their industrious ways to create tools and jewelry. Also their awareness of surrounding or impeding cultures. But the Restaurant took the cake! Waitstaff was so nice and helpful. The runner for the food was so polite and considerate. Our waitress was sweet and on it! Again, the museum is dope but the Restaurant took the cake! And not the Cafe....the restaurant. Im not sure what the Cafe has because we never made it there. We had the salmon salad ( amazing greens choice and cooking style...roasted bits added depth and texture) and the pumpkin curry...just so frigging good ( roasted pumpkin rib like is was a salmon slab...curry with a wonderful balance of coconut cream and spices and the coconut rice was perfectly baked with coconut flavored and tiny fluffy pillows of savoriness)...and the tangerine juice...great museum! Definitely would stop pass!

A wonderful place to visit to get an idea of aboriginal culture of gold making and their ingenuity and craftsmanship. Some pieces are so delicately made with in such small details that it is unbelievable how they could achieve this. You'll learn a lot about metal and gold craftsmanship and the beliefs and culture of the people who occupied the land before European colonization. In regards to accessibility, easy access for all with elevators and easy guide signs. Translation in English were available, and was possible to get audio guide. In August 2025, it was free on Sundays for attendance.

Amazing place and I would 100% recommend. Very clean, organized and well planned exhibits. So much to see and learn here and I was also surprised to find out that most of the exhibits have English descriptions adjacent to each piece. Beautiful relics and unique pieces. The museum has a cafe and gift shop inside as well. Lots to do afterwards in the immediate area such as shopping and dining.

Great big museum in Bogota... Good location... One of the main things and attraction to see when you in this city and all Colombia ... The entrance is 5000 pezos, about 1euro...its cheap...Museum is on 3 floors..They are open every day except Monday until 6pm... There you can see all Colombian history... Also you can see some videos in few rooms... So much pieces of gold, neckles, rings, crowns..In the basement you can buy some unique things.. Sometimes it's very crowded... All recommendations for visit and enjoy if you are in Bogota

This was an excellent museum. The entrance fee is also only 5000 pesos. Just the treasures that they had there were incredibly impressive. There should be a little more information about the dates of the pieces but I was also just happy to look at the items and be taken in by their magic. They also had an immersive experience that lit up a circular wall of jewelry. I got shivers thinking of all the people that the pieces belonged to. They also have a store were you can buy gold plated replicas of some of the jewelry. All in all a really beautiful place to visit.

Much richer than expected. The museum offers a wide range of well-presented exhibits, with clear explanations through both the audio guide and display texts. I took a slow, thorough walk through and spent about 6 hours. Highlights: 1) gold and other metalworking techniques; 2) artifacts and decorations from different regions of Colombia; 3) offerings and their ritual significance. A deeply rewarding visit.

We visited this museum while exploring Bogotá. We visited during a weekend and there was a line in front of the building. It took about 10 minutes to get in. The entrance fee is quite low. The museum itself is quite big with multiple floors. Most information is in Spanish and English. When we visited it was quite busy and sometimes there were too many people to properly enjoy the collections. However, there were many impressive artefacts and we were glad we saw them to better understand Colombian history and culture. There is also a gift shop and a coffee shop in the basement. This is a perfect place to visit on a rainy day.

Many pieces of arts and introduction, we don’t have much time to read every detail, I saw someone is using kind of earphone to listen to voice explanation, look good. But just don’t know where to rent? How many languages it has. Sunday is free to entrance, very worthy to visit.
