More information about the video content bellow: 1. Venezuela has the world’s largest proven oil reserves (almost 300 billion barrels) and the world’s eighth largest proven natural gas reserves (almost 6 quadrillion cubic metres). 2. There is a persistent storm at Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela. Lightning storms occur for about 10 hours a night, 140 to 160 nights a year, for a total of about 1.2 million lightning discharges per year. The collision with the winds coming from the Andes Mountains causes the storms and associated lightning, a result of electrical discharges through ionised gases, specifically the methane created by the decomposition of organic matter in the marshes. Being lighter than air, the gas rises up to the clouds, feeding the storms. 3. The world’s tallest uninterrupted waterfall, Angel Falls, is located in Venezuela. With a height of 980 metres it’s about 15 times taller than the Niagara Falls. 4. Canaima National Park is spread over 3 million hectares (7.4 million acres) in south-eastern Venezuela along the border between Guyana and Brazil. Roughly 65% of the park is covered by table mountain (tepui) formations. The tepuis constitute a unique biogeological entity and are of great geological interest. The sheer cliffs and waterfalls, including the world’s highest, form a spectacular landscape. In 1994, the Canaima National Park was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. 5. The Monument to Our Lady of Peace (Monumento a la Virgen de la Paz) is the world’s highest statue of the Virgin Mary and the highest habitable sculpture in the American continent. Built entirely of concrete on hollow steel shell, the sculpture is 46.72 meters high, 16 meters wide and weighs about 1200 tonnes. It is just 72 centimeters taller than the Statue of Liberty. 6. With its earthen constructions unique to the Caribbean, Coro is the only surviving example of a rich fusion of local traditions with Spanish Mudéjar and Dutch architectural techniques. One of the first colonial towns (founded in 1527), it has some 602 historic buildings. Coro and its port La Vela was designated in 1993 as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. 7. Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, is made up of 5 municipalities: El Hatillo, Sucre, Baruta, Chacao and Libertador. The Metropolitan District of Caracas was estimated at 3,273,863 as of 2013. The Metropolitan Region of Caracas has an estimated population of 5,243,301.
