About this listen

El Dorado from a gold-covered king in Muisca ritual to a mythical city of boundless riches. Spanish conquistadors and European explorers risked—and often lost—their lives chasing the legend through the jungles and mountains of South America. While no golden city was ever found, the myth of El Dorado endures as a symbol of human ambition, greed, and the allure of the unattainable.
