Calabozo
Claimed to hold Venezuela's most extensive colonial centre, Calabozo is a city in Guárico state on the banks of the Guárico River, with a walkable historic core full of cafés and restaurants. The Generoso Campilongo Dam — the largest in Venezuela — sits on the city's edge, and the surrounding plains are served by the country's most extensive irrigation system, making rice and maize production central to the region's economy.
