We went out as a family on a Saturday to take a walk to the town of Cumanacoa, Sucre State, Venezuela, but then we stayed away from its majestic rivers and we arrived at San Antonio de Capayacuar, Monagas State, Venezuela, there we met a Spa called Las Puertas from Miraflores, but before entering the canyon, a vendor of strawberries with cream told us in detail that there converge 2 Rivers, the Guarapiche River that is born in the Canyon called Las Puertas de Miraflores, and at the entrance said, pointing to his right: "This is the shortest river in the world, born at the foot of that Matapalo and ends right there in the river Garapiche, only runs 13 meters."

A resident of the area and the guides of INPARQUES explained that although we see it short, it is very large, near the foot of the Matapalo they made a kind of waterfall and there they put pipes to supply the surrounding communities: Miraflores, Campo Alegre and Tristé.

Here a family photo at the birth of the shortest river in the world
