READING

South America

I hope my short blog helps you plan your travels around this great continent. Here are four of the best
places I visited, starting with Venezuela in September.
Canaima, Venezuela
I didn’t go to the capital, Caracas, as it isn’t the safest place to visit. I only went to Canaima, which is the
smallest place in this blog. It’s a quiet town in a beautiful national park and people go there because it is
the closest place to Angel Falls - the world’s highest waterfall. I took a lot of photos but video is better
because you can remember the noise of all that water!
Cuzco, Peru
Next, I travelled through Colombia to Peru to see some of the oldest temples in the world, built by the
Incas. Cuzco, the nearest city, is very friendly to tourists and I bought a lot of souvenirs. It also has a lot of
lovely old buildings and you can learn more about the history of the temples if you visit the museums. Be
careful to choose the best time to visit. The busiest months are June and July and Cuzco is full of visitors
then. I went in December and it wasn’t busy but it rained every day.
Valparaíso, Chile
Valparaíso was more interesting for me than the capital, Santiago. It’s a large city, full of colourful houses
and a lot of history. I especially wanted to visit the place where the writer Pablo Neruda lived. It’s a house
with five floors, on top of a hill and you can see the whole city and the sea from up there. It was one of the
most expensive tourist sites I visited but I really loved it.
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
This busy city has views of the mountains and the most famous beaches in South America. I was in Rio for
the biggest, loudest party in the world. Of course I’m talking about the Rio carnival. The date changes each
year but it always takes place in late February or early March. It’s amazing! Don’t miss it!
Enjoy your trip. You’re going to have a fantastic time.
