Arauca, Colombia: Border Pearl of the Orinoco Plain
Arauca is a department in eastern Colombia, located in the northern part of the plains of the Orinoco River, bordering Venezuela, with the capital city of Puerto Arauca. It has a flat terrain and a remarkable savannah climate, and the Orinoco River and its tributaries nourish the vast land, which is rich in biodiversity. The economy is based on animal husbandry, petroleum agriculture and rice cultivation, making it an important granary and energy-producing region for Colombia. The culture is a mix of indigenous, Spanish colonial and frontier, with vibrant traditional music such as the "Juyapajo", and festivals that showcase the simplicity and warmth of agro-pastoral life. As a border region, Arauca retains the simplicity of Colombia's interior and the unique charm of its cross-border cultures, making it a great place to explore the intersection of nature and people.
