Sunset at Mount Roraima or Roraima Plateau ( also known as Roraima Tepui or Cerro Roraima in Spanish, and Monte Roraima in Portuguese ) in Canaima National Park, this is the highest of the Pakaraima chain of tepui plateau in South America. Mount Roraima lies on the Guiana Shield in the southeastern corner of Venezuela's Canaima National Park.
