San Juan de los Morros

San Juan de Los Morros, is the capital of the state of Guárico and, practically, the door of entrance for the central zone. It has a very particular geography where spectacular mountains prevail, with a singular appearance, this fact, it consisted in one of the reasons of part of the name of the city - Mounts (mounts, mountains). Beyond these geographic aspects, San Juan still has a great variety of thermal waters, that had concurred sufficiently for the development of the city since the end of the last century. The spas and the mounts had made celebrity this city!

Nice job, my friend. On rain, moderation seems to be unheard of here.
