This is my entry for the monomad challenge August 11 :10 uncommon photos of my city

Hello community @blackandwhite community. Every time I had the chance to go out to tour the city I like to take pictures of the experience.

I like to photograph Especially the small details Those are the ones that generally nobody notices or that go unnoticed like this dog that was barking next to the car or like this fire hydrant that has been around since I moved to this city in 1972 there it is yellow by the way I thought it was super beautiful and super "vintage" as they say nowadays.

Most of these photographs belong to the area of ​​"Avenida 17 de Diciembre" , "Paseo Heres", And Paseo Meneses, these are not even known to my city since my city is characterized by being a colonial city and that is what it is mostly known for. I live in Ciudad Bolívar Venezuela,
A city built by the efforts of the Spanish empire on the banks of the Orinoco river around the end of the 1700s with an impressive historical center and very well preserved by the government of Spain together with the government of Venezuela, so they are the most modern as these are relegated to the background and when tourists come to the city they think that we don't have things like two-story buildings or big supermarkets or big modes and we have all of that just like the old town.

However, it should be noted that this is a very strange city. Let me explain when I moved here in 1972 for me it was the realization of a dream. Wow, traveling to the capital and living in the capital of the State, Ciudad Bolívar is the capital of the State.

I come from the countryside, I was born in the countryside of a small town called the Orinoco side, about five or five or six hours away. I got married and came to live here, and the city was very different from the city I show today. Very different from the city where I arrived, this city has the peculiarity that things that are normally on the perimeter of the rest of the cities Here it is in the very center of the city, for example, the jail was built in an area of ​​the city and around an entire Urbanization The same thing happens with the airport with the Fortín del zamuro and with all the important landmarks. Imagine an airport in the middle of the city or a jail in the middle of the hormone of the most prestigious Urbanization!

Obviously the city where I live today was built around the construction made by the Spanish Empire at the time and therefore it was not very planned or very urbanized Unlike the city of Puerto Ordaz a city that is 45 minutes away of My city and which is known for its excellent urbanism.

However, the first inhabitants of this city were people with a lot of money, businessmen, entrepreneurs, and these areas, these photographs that these areas take, are very exclusive areas of the city, very beautiful areas with houses made by Europeans, Germans, Portuguese, Italians, Arabs, Chinese, Japanese, people of all cultures and nationalities there are beautiful houses beautiful avenues trees brought from other cities honestly it is an eclectic and spectacular mix city Bolívar is a truly emblematic city.

Thank you for reading see you next time, regards
