Llovizna
Falls is a waterfall on the Caroní River, close
to its confluence with the Orinoco,
located in the 160-hectare Llovizna Park,
at Puerto Ordaz, in Ciudad Guayana, Bolívar State.
The waterfall is about 20 meters high. The nearby Macagua Dam has reduced
the flow over the waterfall in recent years, but the cascade continues to be
spectacular and is a major tourist attraction.
