Entry for Reflection Hunters Contest – Round 95


View of the "paseo orinoco" is a from the "posada Doña Casilda", an inn located on top of a gigantic rock

Hello @shadowhunters community, this is my entry for the contest: Round 95 reflections. The images that I share below belong to my city, Ciudad Bolívar, Venezuela, specifically in the emblematic "Paseo Orinoco". 🔗

During the rainy season, over the years the river has overflowed several times, leaving many residents of the sector and its surroundings in a street situation.

The Paseo site completely flooded

This year we suffered the ravages of the tail of a tropical storm and the damage was quite strong, even in my own house and I live super far from the center of the City. They cracked from ceilings, walls and floors, water leaked which brought with it electricity, Internet and water problems since in my country these services are really deficient.

This year the fishing was hard due to the force of the river. Many people look forward to the months of July, August and September to fish for a livelihood

As you can see the infrastructure is really poor build and fragile, that's why it crumbles easily. In front of this walk are located a lot of simple to fancy stores, because this area its the heart of the commerce since forever.
Usually the owner must pay for repairs with their own income, which obviously damage in their business and for the people that work with them, a lot of them close their business.

The reason why I choose this especially part of the city it's because it's the tourist principal attraction.


This neighborhood is called "" el zanjón" actually is a fall between rocks and this lower part it is affected often because of the river
