The Search for EL DORADO
The New World at the dawn of the 16th century. A place where native armies were led by divine mummies. Children were sacrificed to the sun. And men were worshiped as living gods.

Now trek into modern-day Colombia in the fevered footsteps of seekers from the earliest Spaniards to the treasure hunters of this century. Find clues ranging from stunning re-creations of tribal temples and villages adorned with gold to the ancient traditions and glittering wealth of one remote tribe-the Muisca. And see how their most sacred ritual has tragically convinced the conquistadors and others that followed that the golden dream they sought... might in fact be real.
Now, renowned experts and breakthrough techniques reveal history's most sought-after secrets... in the echo of ANCIENT VOICES. See lost worlds brought to life again through state-of-the-art virtual reality reconstructions, stunning location filming and evocative reenactments.
