Shopping recommendations:

Shopping: Colombian emeralds account for more than half of the world's production. You can buy them at:

1. There is an emerald market on a street in Bogota. The prices of gems here can be bargained down to a relatively low price, but the quality is difficult to tell whether they are real or fake.

2. There are high-end jewelry stores in large shopping malls. They are heavily guarded, but the prices are high.

3. A store near the University of the Andes is recommended by the Chinese Embassy and is jokingly called the Embassy Store. The prices are higher than those on Gem Street, but the gems are relatively safe. Chinese people can buy gems here at a 40% discount, provided that they trade in cash, otherwise they can only get an 80% discount. They accept US dollars and Colombian pesos.

Food: Colombia is the country of coffee, the coffee here is rich, fragrant and cheap.
