Hello, appreciated and receptive Photography Community, today I come to tell you about one of my adventures in one of the most important tourist sites in Venezuela, the Ecological Park, popularly called Cerro Hotel Maracay located in the Girardot Municipality, Aragua State.
This mountain has several stations, where you can appreciate nature, the river and the famous container. Also, you can see the whole city. When I decided to go up the hill, I did it because I had had a day full of stress, mental exhaustion and disturbances, so I went with a friend, the demand was increasing when climbing between rocks and trees. It takes incredible capacity and stamina to do it.
A particular feature of this site is that it has many routes to get to each station earlier, however, as it was the first time I was going up, I was afraid of taking the risk of taking the route where fewer people walked.
Along the way I saw athletes, children, older adults whom I met and who gladly gave their opinion on the park.
Upon reaching the second station I found these turquoise flowers, which I did not think I would find since the climate is warm. However, they had a hard texture on the leaves, many people were amazed by the existence of these beautiful flowers in this place.
In addition, I was able to photograph several insects that caught my attention, such as coccinellids and caterpillars belonging to the order of Lepidoptera that I will show you below.
It should be noted that on the way we did not lose...
On this long journey from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, I ate, drank 2 liters of water and drained the discomfort with which I started with physical exercise. It is in this way that the adventure in the mountains and the walk contributed to my emotional well-being.
