TRAVEL GUIDE: VENEZUELA

Dubbed "little Venice" by Spanish explorers upon seeing houses on stilts at the water's edge, Venezuela still retains a bit of mystery. In some sections, this country is densely populated, but other areas remain a wilderness, largely uninhabited and marked by such visual splendors as Angel Falls.
