Visiting the cable car Mukumbari Merida Venezuela

Hello dear steemit community, I come by to show you part of a trip I made in January and marveled at the renovated Merida Cable Car System, Mukumbari.

Mukumbari means in an indigenous voice "*place where the sun sleeps **. This name was given by the first inhabitants to what is now known as the imposing Sierra Nevada.

The cable car system Mukumbari, has a route of 12 beautiful kilometers, where you will delight your sight with majestic mountains, the route is a total beauty that goes from 1577 meters above sea level (1577 meters) to 4765 meters above sea level. It is considered the most modern on the planet! This work has 5 stations:

Barinitas
Welcome station, where you can take advantage of capturing images with the original Venezuelan stamp birth, here you can buy tickets, candy shops, gifts, hats, scarves and some crafts that will fall in love with you.

Then we got into the wagon to live this adventure....

Beautiful view of Merida from the cabin

The second station La Montañita, here you have an immense viewpoint, where you can take some excellent panoramic photos, as well as enjoy delicious dishes in a very cozy restaurant at that stop.

We continue climbing up and we arrive at the station La Aguada, this station you can take walks outside the facilities and breathe the fresh air of the mountain, as long as the weather allows you.

Every walk in the seasons is a spectacle! There are windows everywhere, with views that dazzle the eyes and soul.

Loma Redonda Station (my favorite) at 4000 masl approx. Here you will find a coffee in the best style of the 60s, where they prepare some delicacies, you will have the opportunity to have contact with nature and even take rides on horses and some funny donkeys, it is recommended to go slowly and enjoy as much as you can...

My little boy never stopped admiring the mountains

and finally we arrive at the Mirror Peak Station, with luck you will get an unforgettable snowfall, the weather in this season is fantastic! The peaks are a beauty

The Virgin of the Snows

In short, an experience that you will carry in your heart...!
