The picture of this emerald was taken inside of the showcase of Emeralds. The manager was nice enough to allow me to take pictures after I told this that I owned this travel site. Pictures are restricted throughout the entire museum for security purposes. The Emerald museum was very different from the other museums in Bogota and also very interesting. Its very near the tourist trail and very near the popular gold museum.
