People says that to know a city, you should visit their market. We visited the Amazonas craft market and it was a joy for the eyes. I was lucky that this young lady accepted a photo, natives believe that cameras stole their souls. / Dicen que para conocer a una ciudad hay que visitar su mercado. Tuve suerte que esta señorita aceptara una fotografía, porque los indígenas creen que las cámaras roban su alma. Visitamos el marcado de artesanías de Amazonas y fue un regocijo a los ojos.

You have to cross Orinoco river on a "chalana", a little version of a ferry. You can cross on your car or just walking. Chalanas unite Bolívar, Apure and Colombia ports. / Hay que cruzar el río Orinoco en "chalana", una pequeña versión de un ferry. Puedes cruzar en tu carro o caminando.

Orinoco river owes it's brown-orange color to the sediments dragged from other multiple rivers that cross with it / El río Orinoco debe su color marrón-naranja a los sedimentos arrastrados por otros ríos que cruzan con él.
