Points of interest in the capital La Asunción include: the Asunción Cathedral which was built in the 18th century with its typical colonial accents, La Casa Capitular, formerly the seat of the colonial government and now the Library and Museum Nueva Cadiz, and the State Legislature housed in an old Franciscan monastery.
Foreign visitors also buy handicrafts like hammocks, baskets, and pottery here, but what really attracts them to Margarita are the beaches, the almost guaranteed sun, the food, the nightlife and the fun.
Its freeport status (read: duty free) has made Margarita the least expensive resort destination in the Caribbean for tourists from Europe and North America.
