		"Mérida city, capital of Mérida state, western Venezuela. The city lies on a large alluvial terrace near the Río Chama in the Cordillera de Mérida; at an elevation of 5,384 ft (1,641 m), it is the highest city in Venezuela and enjoys one of the most pleasant climates in the nation. In the vicinity are five snowcapped peaks exceeding 15,000 ft in height. To one of them, Pico Espejo (Mirror Peak; about 15,600 ft), runs a cable-car system 7 2/3 mi (12 km) long, said to be the longest and highest in the world." Encyclopaedia Britannica
		"Venezuela is a country of striking natural beauty and dramatic contrasts: the snowcapped peaks of the Andes in the west; steamy Amazonian jungles in the south; the hauntingly beautiful Gran Sabana plateau, with its strange flat-topped mountains, in the east; and 3000km (1860mi) of white-sand beaches fringed with coconut palms lining the Caribbean coast. South America's largest lake, Lake Maracaibo, and third-longest river, the Orinoco, are also here, and the country boasts the world's highest waterfall, Angel Falls. It is also home to a wide variety of exotic plants and animals, including the jaguar, ocelot, tapir, armadillo, anteater, and the longest snake in the world, the anaconda." Lonely Planet
		"South America is the world's fourth largest continent. The Andes, the earth's longest mountain chain on land, stretch from Cape Horn into Venezuela. The world's highest waterfall, Angel Falls, is found here as well as the Amazon River, the world's largest river by volume." National Geographic
