Aguas Calientes
Aguas Calientes, Táchira, Venezuela
Description
Aguas Calientes is a town in the Pedro María Ureña municipality, in Táchira state, whose name comes from the thermal springs that have shaped its identity for generations. As the capital of the Nueva Arcadia parish, this destination holds a special charm: that of an Andean border town that blends tradition, hospitality and a landscape tied to water and the mountains. Its historic thermal-water hotel, opened in 1956, remains a symbol of its welcoming character. Because of its position within the Ureña–San Antonio corridor, close to the border with Colombia, Aguas Calientes has always served as a meeting and connection point within the Táchira region.
According to data from the 2011 Census by the National Institute of Statistics, the Nueva Arcadia parish —of which Aguas Calientes is the capital— recorded a population of 10,940 inhabitants, split almost evenly between men and women (INE, "2011 Census", accessed 2026). Integrated into the dynamic urban and commercial corridor of Ureña, the local economy is driven by border trade, services and the tourist appeal of its thermal waters (Wikipedia, "Aguas Calientes (Táchira)", accessed 2026).
