No visit to Venezuela can be complete without a trip to the amazing Amazonas region, Venezuela’s own stretch of the Amazon rainforest. It is remote from the state capital and has the most amazing and awesome flora and fauna to be found on this earth. The biodiversity of this region is very great. It is also home to many indigenous tribes who still follow their own customs and culture. Visit this region to experience a pristine rainforest and see a diverse variety of plants and animals.
Apart from the Amazon region, Venezuela is defined by the Guayana Highlands. The world’s highest waterfalls – the Angel Falls – belong to this area. The area also has tepuis — huge sandstone mesas that rise many thousands of feet above the Gran Sabana, a vast grassland.
The tropical forest and beaches of this country make it an ideal place for sun worshippers. One can also explore the living coral reefs of this area from the beaches around Cumana. One can go diving in the sea around this area and see the live coral reefs – something that is a great sight to watch.
Whether it is night life that you seek or warm days at the beach or a more adventurous trip into the jungles, this is the place for you. You can get a bit of everything here. And the scale of the views is simply majestic. Make sure that you visit Venezuela soon if you are planning a trip to South America any time soon.
