Aragua Colonia Tovar Village in the mountain range of the Cordillera de la Costa, at about 1,800 meters, founded in 1843 by immigrants from the Kaiserstuhl region in southwestern Germany. The white half-timbered houses with dark beams, the Iglesia San Martín de Tours, the sausages, the beer and strawberries with cream make it the weekend trip for people from Caracas. It is about 60 km from Caracas.
