El Dorado (Spanish for "the golden one") is a legend that began with the story of a South American tribal chief who covered himself with gold dust and would dive into a lake of pure mountain water.
The legend originates in the Andes mountain region of present-day Colombia, where conquistador Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada first found the Muiscas, a nation in the modern day Cundinamarca and Boyacá highlands of Colombia, in 1537. The story of Muisca rituals was brought to Quito by Sebastián de Belalcázar's men; mixed with other rumors, there arose the legend of 'El Dorado' (meaning the Golden Man rather than a place - 'el indio dorado', the golden Indian or 'El Rey Dorado', The Golden King).
Possible source of the legend was golden palace Coricancha, in the heart of the Inca Empire, which had everything covered in gold, including golden garden with statues and even flowers made out of gold, abundant in the Inca world.
El Dorado Hills is a city, in El Dorado County, in California, about 40 miles east of Sacramento. This is a "golden area" too. It is beautiful, the homes there are generally larger than average, and average household income is high.
