"Firstborn City"

I want to introduce you to the city where I am lucky enough to live. She is the Firstborn of the American Continent, Cumaná. This was founded by the Spaniards in the year 1521. Some indigenous people of the Cumanagotos tribe already lived in the place and the meaning of Cumaná in the native language means "Union of the Sea and the River"

This city today is the Capital of the State of Sucre (Venezuela) and little by little it is adapting to the new realities of many more advanced cities. For tourism it is special, since it has several internal and foreign beaches, it also has rivers, monuments from the time of the Spanish and many other diversities of places.

Here in this city was where the hero of our independence, General Antonio Jose de Sucre, was born. He was born on Calle Montes where there is currently a high school that bears his name in his honor. Antonio Jose de Sucre was born on February 3, 1795 and was assassinated on June 4, 1830 in the mountain of Barruecos (Colombia)

Cumana right now the largest coastal strip in Venezuela is being built, in it there will be a channel to ride bicycles, exercise machines, a large space to hold cultural events and other things. Here I leave some of my own photos and two that I downloaded from the google gallery so that you could have a visual of Cumana. The Firstborn of the American Continent (Venezuela)
