Manage episode 357337179 series 3438424
Welcome to a captivating journey into the heart of the Gran Sabana, where we encounter the sounds of wildlife at night. As we venture closer to the river, the sound of crickets and frogs reverberates in the air, punctuated by the occasional call of a distant bird.
Just barely audible in the background to this awe-inspiring experience are the sounds of a majestic waterfall accompanied by the more prominent sounds of a river.
The sheer beauty of the Gran Sabana is enough to leave one in a state of wonder and awe, but it's the visceral experience of being immersed in nature that truly captures the essence of this place.
The Gran Sabana is a vast region in southeastern Venezuela that covers nearly 10% of the country's land area. It is home to the world-famous Angel Falls, the highest waterfall in the world, and is dominated by unique flat-topped mountains called Tepuis.
The region boasts a rich variety of wildlife, including jaguars, pumas, and giant otters, as well as over 800 species of birds. The indigenous Pemon people have lived in the Gran Sabana for thousands of years and are known for their intricate weaving and basket-making.
