The Orinoco River, Venezuela’s natural and cultural treasure

In Venezuela, the Orinoco River opens up one of the world’s largest deltas, the gateway to Latin America. This was the route taken by the conquistadores, following in the footsteps of Christopher Columbus, in their quest for the mythical Eldorado. Today, it is on the banks of this river that the descendants of the survivors of the massacres perpetrated by the Spanish on their way to conquest live. To travel up the Orinoco is to go back in time and gradually rediscover the secret roots of Latin America, from the founding myths of the Latin American world in Ciudad Bolivar to the traces of vanished civilizations, protected by the river’s waters. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Intro ▷ 00:50 - The Orinoco, world’s largest deltas ▷ 02:15 - Route taken by the conquistadores in their quest for the mythical Eldorado ▷ 05:36 - The Orinoco and its sacred aura ▷ 08:23 - Fishing communities along the river ▷ 11:40 - Ancestral way of life still perpetuated ▷ 14:53 - Ciudad Bolivar ▷ 19:00 - Warao people, the native people of Orinoco ▷ 24:53 - The Llanos , vast tropical grassland plain ▷ 27:00 - Llanero, Venezuelan and Colombian herder ▷ 29:25 - Anaconda expedition ▷ 33:30 - Puerto Ayacucho ▷ 36:00 - Petroglyph of prehistoric indigenous peoples ▷ 42:40 - Credits #documentary #rivers #latinamerica #venezuela #bolivar #wildlife #rafting #orinoco #tribes #indegenous ------- Subscribe to wocomoTRAVEL: https://goo.gl/tIk2Qc Follow us on Facebook:   / wocomo   ------- A journey through the most spectacular sites of our planet, exploring the geographical and historical imprints of each of these great rivers.
