The Angel Falls waterfall is more highest in the world (979 meters), is located in the heart of the Amazon jungle state of Bolivar in southern Venezuela.
The real adventure and 'reach. From Ciudad Bolivar we must take a 1 hour flight to Canaima (in the middle of the forest), hence 5 hours of going up the Rio Carrao launches across landscapes "prehistoric" to reach the base camp, situated on the banks of the river in front of Angel Falls. After a trek of about 1 hour 400m climb through the forest, we reach the point of view of Angel Falls.
Here it is, in all its immensity, 'the cascade' down from high in the world Auyan tepui (2340mt). And to think that water from the waterfall and not 'power from any river, but only from rain and humidity 'that accumulates on top' of Tepui. The landscape and 'prehistoric, not surprisingly Arthur Conan Doyle and' here he found inspiration for his book "The Lost World", and it 'Jurassic Park was filmed here.
If you were wondering What are Tepui, it is immense plateaus (table top mountain) in the area in the case dell'Auyan Tepui ("Devil's Mountain" in the language of the Indians Pemon) and 'to 700kmq (there is' room for to accumulate a lot 'of rain especially during the rainy season).
Wild, boundless, free, pristine, primordial, pure, original, are words that give a glimpse of the place.
Norioshi You know, a Japanese of 50 years left with our own shipping. He tells us he is making the dream of his life, what he had as a child, in elementary school in a book he had seen a picture of Angel Falls and from that moment he decided that one day he would go to see it.
