A tour to Bogota’s emerald museum in the heart of downtown Bogota is an interesting way to familiarise yourself with the gemstone and learn a little about where the precious stones come from in Colombia. Its in the 23rd floor of the Avianca Building close to Bogota’s Gold museum. There you will enter a tunnel in a dark Colombian emerald mine displaying the rich veins where emerald stones form. Once the geological formation and mining process has been explained you are led into a showroom with hundreds of emeralds in exhibition. Of course the emeralds are all very impressive with display cases filled with uncut emerald crystals, the stunning trapiche emerald stones and even a Coca Cola bottle fashioned from emeralds. There is also a workshop inside the museum where you can watch technicians cut and polish the green gemstone. The tour is just about the right length of time, about 45 minutes; long enough for everyone to grasp a good basic knowledge on the gemstone and for the guide to answer any questions you may have. At the end of the tour there is an emerald store for you to make a luxurious purchase.
