Angel Falls a waterfall in Venezuela. It is the world's highest uninterrupted waterfall, with a height of 979 metres (3,211feet) and a plunge of 807 metres (2,368 feet). The waterfall drops over the edge of the Auyán-tepui mountain in the Canaima National Park (Spanish: Parque Nacional Canaima), a UNESCO World Heritage site in the Gran Sabana region of Bolívar State. The height figure 979 metres (3,211 feet) mostly consists of the main plunge but also includes about 400 metres (0.25 mi) of sloped cascade and rapids below the drop and a 30-metre (98 ft) high plunge downstream of the talus rapids.
The falls are along a fork of the Rio Kerepacupai Meru which flows into the Churun River, a tributary of the Carrao River, itself a tributary of the Orinoco River.
ngel Falls is one of Venezuela's top tourist attractions, though a trip to the falls is a complicated affair. The falls are located in an isolated jungle. A flight from Puerto Ordaz or Ciudad Bolívar is required to reach Canaima camp, the starting point for river trips to the base of the falls. River trips generally take place from June to December, when the rivers are deep enough for use by the Pemon guides. During the dry season (December to March) there is less water seen than in the other months. The falls receive roughly 900,000 visitors per year.
Hello!! i feel happy that you comments about the Angel falls, because i am from Puerto Ordaz-Venezuela, but the sad notice is that minery is destroying the Canaima National Park. All for the greed and selfishness of this government. All the world ignores that hapends in Venezuela, and when all fix their eyes in my country will be to late. The care of this World Heritage is reponsability not only of the venezuelan people, everybody in the world is resposible of this.
people dont care about the nature they only focuses on how to have more money due to this culture in our society we people r degrading our nature everyday.
