Venezuela Attractions & Landmarks Guide

Just a hop and a skip from the island of Trinidad in the southern Caribbean, Venezuela forms the northern crown of South America. The country’s top attractions are its rainforests and magnificent Angel Falls, the world’s highest single drop waterfall. Venezuela’s Orinoco River is the continent’s second longest after the Amazon, and cruise ships sometimes call at the country’s offshore islands in the Caribbean. Caracas, the capital, combines modern sophistication with colonial architecture.

Tequenos: Better than mozzarella sticks, Tequenos is a pastry crust filled with salty white cheese. This dish can be fried or baked and typically served with a Venezuelan avocado sauce.

Cachapa: Found both in street vendors and restaurants, Cachapa is like a pancake that is often stuffed with hand-made cheese and cream with butter on top. If you order this in a restaurant it often comes with ham, pork or beef.

Tres Leches: For the travelers with a sweet tooth, Tres Leches is perfect for you. This dish is a sponge cake soaked in condensed milk, evaporated milk and regular milk with a meringue topping. With all this milk you may think the cake gets soggy but because there is no butter, the batter is light and stays fluffy and delectable.

Mandocas: This dish isn’t your typical donut. It’s a dough made of sweetened cornmeal, salt, water and plantains. It is served with butter or cheese and is often eaten as a breakfast dish.
