Caracas Essentials

Caracas showcases a blend of colonial history and mid-century modernism against the Avila mountain range. The historic center features the 17th-century Caracas Cathedral and the National Pantheon, the final resting place of Simón Bolívar. Architectural highlights include the UNESCO-listed Central University of Venezuela and the brutalist Teresa Carreño Theatre. Beyond the urban core, the restored colonial village of El Hatillo offers traditional architecture, while PDVSA La Estancia and Caricuao Zoo provide significant green spaces and cultural venues for the city.
