Barquisimeto, Lara, Venezuela
Description
Known as the "Musical Capital of Venezuela", Barquisimeto is a city of reddish skies at dusk and warm, hardworking people. Capital of Lara state and of the Iribarren municipality, it rises in the central-western region as a historic crossroads between the Andes, the plains and the coast. Its orchestral tradition, the fervor of the Divina Pastora —one of the largest Marian processions in the country— and its thriving commercial life give it an unmistakable character. Since colonial times, Barquisimeto has been a meeting and connection point for all of western Venezuela.
