Quíbor Travel Guide: 8 reviews and 30 photos

Quíbor

Nice town, relaxing and with much culture. It's interesting...well preserved!

Archaeological museum!

This museum preserve objects that were made for our aborigens in the pre-Columbian epoch.
There is objects of the year 4 d.c. I don't remember if there is objects from previous centuries

It is very interesting to see how they made objects depending of their needs

PS: I will do a travelogues to upload pics of the museum!

Going out of the museum we meet two very nice gentlemen. One was selling sticks that are used to dance a very popular dance called " El tamunangue " and the other one is a very famous musician in this land with nickname of "Chichón" (the bump on the head). He sang several songs with his "cuatro" (Typical musical instrument here in Venezuela) in the square while we were enjoying the music and an ice cream.

...Bump showed how the stick is used in the Tamunangue

Nice photo of the huge tripode in Quibor. I don't have many images of the town itself--only the ceramics that we buy there.
