Cagua my town I come to present it to you - Cagua mi pueblo vengo a presentártelo

Between the modern and the ancient
Entre lo moderno y lo antiguo

I love you Cagua


These days I went out to buy some things I needed at home and run other errands, while I was walking quickly I felt tired so I stopped to breathe a little, at that moment I observed the place and I found my town very beautiful, maybe I was seeing it with eyes of love or gratitude, I don't know, it provoked me to take some pictures and share it in my travel community.

It is amazing how sometimes we prefer to show how far we have come when we travel other roads but not where we come from or where we are. Today I want to show you the town where I grew up and still live, it's called Cagua it's located in Aragua state in Venezuela and I will show you pictures of the center of the community.

En estos días salí a comprar algunas cosas que necesitaba en casa y hacer otras diligencias, mientras caminaba rápidamente me sentí cansada así que me detuve a respirar un poco, en ese momento observe el lugar y me pareció muy bonito mi pueblo, tal vez lo estaba viendo con ojos de amor o de agradecimiento, no lo sé, me provocó tomar algunas fotografías y compartirla en mi comunidad de viajes.

Es asombroso cómo a veces preferimos mostrar los lejos que llegamos cuando recorremos otros caminos pero no de donde venimos o en donde estamos. Hoy quiero enseñarte el pueblo donde crecí y sigo viviendo, se llama Cagua se encuentra en el estado Aragua en Venezuela y te mostraré imágenes del centro de la comunidad.

This publication will be more informative than touristic, it is always good to know about the towns of the world.

Cagua has a population for the year 2015 of 112,571 inhabitants, currently, I don't know how much it has grown population-wise. It is one of the towns with the largest industries in the center of the country.

It was structured on November 29, 1620, as a town and despite being 70 years older than the capital city "Maracay" it did not achieve its development.

It has important companies in the food sector and education many institutes of higher and middle level for example:

Although it is still a town with houses in the colonial style of the Spanish, there are also modern buildings such as shopping malls, Cagua is a town that seems frozen in time, sometimes it grows and then stops and goes backward, I emphasize this comment because I remember that it had several cinemas that no longer exist.

With this concluded a brief tour of my town, I hope you enjoyed coming to visit me 😉 in my home you will always be welcome.

Aunque sigue siendo un pueblo con casas al estilo colonial de los españoles, también se mezclan edificios modernos como centros comerciales, Cagua es un pueblo que parece congelado en el tiempo, a veces crece y luego se detiene y retrocede, enfatizó este comentario porque recuerdo que llegó a tener varias salas de cines que ya no existen.

Con esto concluyó un breve paseo por mi pueblo, espero que te haya gustado venirme a visitar 😉 en mi hogar siempre serás bienvenido.

Curious fact - Dato curioso


Of all the 335 municipalities in Venezuela, the only one that has always voted against the government and elected opposition mayoral candidates was Cagua.

Having as a punishment or oppression that the inhabitants of this community will not benefit from entering housing plans, that is to say, for more than 1 generation the people of Cagua have not been able to have their own house because of the government's construction plans.

De todos los municipios de Venezuela que son 335 el único que siempre ejercicio su voto en contra del gobierno y eligió candidatos a la alcaldía de la oposición fue Cagua.
Teniendo como castigo u opresión que los habitantes de esta comunidad no se beneficiarán de entrar en planes habitacionales, es decir por más de 1 generación las personas de Cagua no han podido tener casa propia por los planes de construcción del gobierno.

The children had to form families and continue living with their parents, leaving a very small space to house more than two families.

Currently, the mayor's office has passed into the hands of a woman who is a supporter of the government and the changes have not arrived.

Los hijos tuvieron que formar familias y seguir viviendo con sus padres, quedando un espacio muy pequeño para albergar más de dos familias.
Actualmente la alcaldía ya pasó a manos de una mujer que es partidaria del gobierno y los cambios no llegaron.

que bonito se ve cagua ojala pudiera visitar todos esos sitios de mi querida venezuela

Ojala Dios te bendiga y puedas conocer cada rincón de nuestra Venezuela, gracias por visitarme. 😉🤗 @calavera22

The buildings are so colourful and beautiful. Too bad Cagua hasn't been benefitting from the government's housing plans. Hopefully, it gets better.

Yes, it is unfortunate that we have no profit, but I am proud of the political decisions made by its inhabitants for so long.

Thank you for visiting my little piece of land with me @wolfofnostreet

You're absolutely correct, very often we neglect our own town. I always say what's local to ourself is travel to someone else on the other side of the world.
