You can shop at Unicentro just like any other department store. More up market is another mall in Santa Barbara. Staff will follow you around the store, which l found strange at first. However you do get used to it and they are not looking for tips just being helpful. The security will also check your bag before you enter and put a tag on it so you can't steal.
What To Buy: Leather goods. Anything from clothes to suitcases and beautiful jewellery. Emeralds very cheap but make sure you go to a reputable store.
What To Pay: You can bargain, not in the centres but the smaller shops.

I spent a fascinating afternoon with an American girl l met in my Spanish class who was an emerald expert. We visited tons of shops where you could buy a simple emerald from 50 dollars to thousands of dollars. A lot of people come here only for the emeralds and coffee of course and take them back to the states or Europe to have them mounted in a ring. You do have the option to buy ready made rings. A good place to buy emeralds is the Tequendama Hotel where you are sure of a guarantee. Never every buy emeralds on the street.

Dear Louise, I enjoyed reading your pages on Bogota. | Redang Sun May 13, 2007 09:52 UTC
Excellent page! | Dublinsfun Sun Feb 11, 2007 18:15 UTC
Great to see and read the fun time you had in Colombia but as you say it can be a hazardous place. Hope someday it can enjoy the freedom and ease of so many other countries. Thanks Louise, enjoying your pages. From Will in Dublin. |
