Colonia Tovar Travel Guide: 23 reviews and 96 photos

A beautiful German town in Venezuela

This little town was founded in the 19th century by German immigrants after the (Venezuelan) independence war. They were brought in order to populate and settle the Venezuelan land due to the fact that the war had reduced the local population.
Nowadays this town is a turistic place because of the Classical German life style. You can see it in the achitecture of houses, malls and churches. But you can taste classical German gastronomy, it is very cheap. Hosting is quite cheap too.
