Event Details
Join Ron Brown as he continues his series about lost cities as he explores El Dorado, the Lost City of Gold. Columbus heard legends of a lost city where the king dressed in gold garments and the metal was as plentiful as sand on the beach. He searched for this lost city as did countless Spanish, Portuguese, French and English explorers lusting for the precious metal. Until today El Dorado remains a lost city but still intrepid explorers spend fortunes, reputations and lives searching for it. Why does gold so fascinate humans?
