2 Best Shopping in Bogotá, Colombia
Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Bogotá right now.
Bogotá's shops and markets stock all types of leather and wool goods designed for life on the high plains. Handwoven ruanas (ponchos) are popular; the natural oils in the wool make them almost impervious to rain. Colombian artisans also have a way with straw: toquilla, a tough native fiber, is used to make hats, shoes, handbags, and even umbrellas.
Museo Internacional de la Esmeralda
The most reliable place to get emeralds at a good price, and with a certificate, is at the Emerald Museum. The small museum shop sells high-quality Boyacá emeralds as raw stones and fine in-house-made jewelry.
