Gallipan, El Avila
A mountain town minutes away of a big metropoli
We went to Avila Magica (Caracas funicular) and then for about USD 2.00 a 4×4 car took us to Gallipan.
You can find there flowers, fruits and marmalades sales posts. It’s cold and the views are incredible.
over 5 years agoChoroní, Aragua
Wow!! One of the best places I had been lately
First you left from Caracas, it’s a 4 hours trip. Try to left Caracas before the rush hour and be at the base of the mountains at the National Park before night. The road up is very narrow and full of curves, also you can find rain or fog when you are near the top of the range.
I hadn’t had that much fun in a lot of time. I forget about email, cellphone, internet, google, etc.
The trip across the National Park to reach Choroní is worth for itself. It’s amazing to observe how nature changes in front of you as you go up and down those mountains.
The town is great, small streets with spaniard colony era houses in bright colours. The people is very friendly, you can hear the drums all night inviting you to join the “tamborera”, you can go walking safely at any hour to the near beach, to see that beach under the moonlight is awesome.
The food is cheap and excellent. I recommend to try a restaurant called Mango’s. We stayed at the Vista Mar Hostal, it’s at the end of the Malecon and charge $100,000 a night, that’s about USD 37 a day. Also try the fish arepas in the post in front of the park, they are wonderfully seasoned. You can find a mix of locals and tourists mostly from european countries. Margaux Heminghway lived here. Also try the “guarapita”, a local alcoholic beverage, but be carefull with its effects can be a little strong.
The days are not too hot, there’s always a sweet breeze coming from the sea and at night from the mountains. You can take a boat to a secluded beach of your choice or walk to the closest one.
For partying there’s a place outside Puerto Colombia called “El Pescaito” you can find from merengue to trance and electronic music.
These are the pictures I took:
