-------------------------------
Ciudad Guayana is a city in Bol?var State, Venezuela. It lies south of the Orinoco, where the river is joined by the Caron? River. The city, officially founded in 1961, is actually composed of the old town of San Felix and the new town of Puerto Ordaz, which lie either side of the Caron? and are connected by two bridges. The city stretches 40 kilometers along the south bank of the Orinoco. With approximately 800,000 people, it's a large city by Venezuelan standards. It's also the country's fastest-growing city, due to it's important iron industry.
It's one of Venezuela's five most important ports, since most goods produced in Bol?var are shipped through it into the Atlantic Ocean, via the Orinoco river.
