Myth Hunters | 09: The Lost City of El Dorado

Legend tells of El Dorado, a great city of gold in South America, a fabulously rich and sophisticated kingdom once home to thousands, hidden deep in the Amazon jungle. For most, it was just a myth. But for British explorer Colonel Percy Fawcett, it was real. Convinced he knew the location of this lost world, he dedicated years to searching for it.

"Myth Hunters" chronicles real-life quests for some of history's greatest legends. From the Nazis' search for the Holy Grail to Americans hunting for pirate treasure in Vietnam, from the true story of the crystal skulls to the mystery of King Solomon's mines, this series uncovers the truth behind some of the most fantastical treasure hunts in modern history.
