The biggest and the best

In this unit we learned how to use the superlative and comparative and had to write a composition about a region from our country. I chose Guayana.

One of the oldest geological regions as well as unspoiled places on earth is that one located to the South of the Orinoco River. It is a unique luscious land with magnificent landscapes, chosen in many opportunities as the natural scenery for films like Spielberg's Arachnophobia, Disney's Jungle to Jungle and Dinosaurs.

It has the highest waterfall in the world: El Salto Angel, with a total height of 979 meters, and La Laguna Canaima with more spectacular cascades.

On the way to the Brazilian border you will get to the Gran Sabana home of the very ancient geological formation called Tepuys; high mountains with vertical hillsides that host on their summits highly balanced ecosystems rarely found anywhere else. This region is more spectacular than anything you'll ever see.

It's one of the most beautiful places in the world!
