Yaritagua
Yaritagua is the capital of the Peña Municipality of Venezuela's state of Yaracuy. Founded in 1699 during Spain's colonization of Venezuela by Nicolas Eugenio de Ponte, it retains some colonial-era buildings. The significance of sugar cane in the area has given it the nickname Ciudad Dulce de Yaracuy. It has a population of around 120,000, and is considered Yaracuy's second city, after the capital San Felipe, Yaracuy.
The city is twinned with Zamora, Spain.
