Bolivar State

The Guiana Shield and the Orinoco River define much of Bolívar State, shaping an economy tied to mining, hydropower and major river routes. In Venezuela’s southeast, tropical forest and broad savanna rise toward the flat-topped tepuis of the Gran Sabana. Canaima National Park contains Angel Falls, recognised as the world’s highest uninterrupted waterfall, amid lands long associated with the Indigenous Pemón people. The Caroní River feeds the Guri Dam, a major source of Venezuelan electricity. Ciudad Bolívar, the state capital on the Orinoco, has a historic centre linked to the independence era.
