by luiggi La Colonia Tovar is approximately 60km from Caracas, it remained practically isolated for more than a century until a road leading to it was paved in 1963. The restricted access and rigid social mores meant that the inhabitants remained exclusively tied to their own culture (marriage, for instance, was prohibited unless to another member of the colony). Only in the 1940s was the Spanish language introduced. The town is a replica of a Black Forest village, with traditional architecture, markets and restaurants selling typical foods and beverages like home brewed beer, sauerkraut, wiener schnitzel, and strudel. Many Caraqueños travel here on weekends to purchase the wonderful vegetables, fruits, and flowers that are grown here. Leave a Comment

by luiggi Situated approximately 70 Km. northwest of Merida, the curvy road to Jaji offers many wonderful panoramic vistas across creeks, lakes, and waterfalls. The most picturesque architectural aspects of Jaji can be found around the town center, where restored whitewashed buildings form a dazzling backdrop for fountains and flowers. Leave a Comment

 Gran Sabana by AndreSTGT Gran Sabana is, as the name implies, a large savannah in the country's south-east. Santa Elena, a small backwater near the Brazilian border, in this beautiful region is the starting point of the Roraima trek (see general tips). Apart from Roraima there are many other attractions around Santa Elena, such as Quebrada de Jaspe (see pic) and Balneario Soruapé, a great swimming spot with natural pools. A one-day tour of these places is usually included in the price of the Roraima trek, but it can also be organised through agencies in Santa Elena. Leave a Comment

 Playa Grande, Puerto Colombia by AndreSTGT Puerto Colombia on the coast of the beautiful Parque Nacional Henri Pittier was my first destination in Venezuela. Getting there by bus from Maracay is gorgeous and hair-raising. The narrow road goes straight through the wonderful and wild mountain scenery of the national park. It was a big surprise for me to find a real tourist resort (mostly Venezuelans) at the end of this road. From Puerto Colombia it's a ten minute walk to Playa Grande, a picture-perfect Caribbean beach, palm-fringed with white sand, where i pitched up my tent. A couple of kilometers inland from Puerto Colombia (45 min walk) is Choroní (pic, see travelogue), a beautiful and tranquil colonial village which is well worth a visit for its colorful houses and cobbled streets.
