昨天,和一群中国公司的朋友们,沿着风景线一路南下玩。沿途有热带树林,白色沙滩,星罗棋布的小岛点缀着平静的港湾。到了Cumaná后,找到了一家不错的中国餐馆,小排骨,烧鸭等竞能和Bay Area的相当。

去Castillo de San Antonio de la Eminencia 还得坐船15分钟,再乘local taxi 10 分钟,才能见到南美最早的fortress 残墙。

Cumaná  is the capital of Venezuela's Sucre State. It is located 402 km east of Caracas. It was one of the first settlements founded by Europeans on the South American mainland[1], in 1515 by Franciscan monks, but due to successful attacks by the indigenous people, it had to be refounded several times. For example, in 1521 by a group of Spaniards under the command of Gonzalo de Ocampo re-established it, and again in 1569 Diego Hernández de Serpa had to rebuild it. After Amerindian attacks became less of a threat, the city was on several occasions destroyed by earthquakes. Thus the oldest part of the city is late 17th and 18th century; almost none of the 16th century architecture survived.

Sucre is something more than beaches when having cities like Cumaná, capital of the state. Founded by the Spaniards in 1521, Cumaná takes pride in being the oldest town on South America's mainland. Among the interesting tourist sites of this city there are:
 
Castillo de San Antonio de la Eminencia: this fortress is the symbol of the city, it was built in 1659 and was raised on a hill from which you can have a beautiful panoramic view of Cumaná and the surrounding.

在要塞里,发现了一堆小海螺,几乎把他们一锅端了回家。



这是早期捡到的各种shells











听说,在另一个地方能捡到树化石。下次,探完险后再贴。
