A Corner of Germany in Venezuela: La Colonia Tovar

in #venezuela3 years ago

Hello friends, I want to tell you about a spectacular town, located in the Aragua state, specifically in the Tovar municipality, known as "La Colonia Tovar", this place was founded by German immigrants, and in this many characteristics of their culture are maintained , especially at the infrastructure level, located almost 2000 meters above sea level, basically its main activity is agriculture and tourism. Traveling and getting to know this beautiful place I was able to observe that there are many activities to develop even on the way to Colonia Tovar, such as paragliding, it was very fun to observe how these people planned on the vehicle in which they were.



Among many things the food is something very delicious in this town, they make many sausages and even very good artisan chocolates, made with 100% Venezuelan cocoa, which is one of the most outstanding in the world, you can imagine how delicious these chocolates were.

Everything, absolutely everything, is very colonial in the German style, businesses, houses and even roads and signs, it is a very interesting place to know since it is the meeting of two worlds, of two cultures that merged in a moment and adapted from a cool way.


Knowing My Country

Venezuela was once the cradle of many immigrants who sought to achieve improvements in their quality of life and future, that is how #Venezuela welcomed so many foreigners and many of them took such great affection for our land that they decided to stay forever, It is a pity that today we are the opposite, a country of emigrants, many times situations change and I believe that everything is necessary cycles and many things must happen so that we can learn lessons and transmit those lessons to future generations is essential not to commit Errors like the one we are experiencing today in #Venezuela, with everything and this, even this country has so much to give and show that many of us have had a hard time getting the idea that sooner or later we must leave, I thought about all this while imagining that Sometimes these German emigrants went through similar situations and as a result of this they left us such beautiful places as La Colonia Tovar.













An excellent ride

I loved this place, it is very beautiful and colorful, there are also restaurants everywhere and the food is very delicious, it was an excellent walk; I recommend going to those who can; You really spend a different day and you manage to capture the essence of that picturesque colonial Germany. The infrastructure is the most beautiful thing about the place, it makes you practically travel back in time and across the country, as it is very different from what is used to handle buildings in Venezuela, even those of origin in the colony.
