    It gives you great view of parts of Venezuelan Andes and its thick rain forest while you crossing over three mountain tops. I particularly liked the ‘fern’. Reminded me of home.

    You are not allowed to take food or drinks in car. But bottled drinks / water are allowed. I had to finish my can cola before I could get into the car again.

    Caracas has several parks. The biggest one is the Avila National Park, where sport fans can climb 400 meters (1200 ft) in half an hour, and be awarded with a beautiful view of the city. To see other parks, click below..

    While giving me the tour, Kelly slowed down a bit and suggested to take a look at the sexy beer commercial. So I did!

    A stroll through old caracas
    The city's historical center about an hour's time you will be able to cover the 10 block area.
    PLAZA BOLIVAR
    Original plaza de armas is the birth place of caracas 400 hundred years ago.start here to go to the CATHEDRAL OF CARACAS,CITY HALL AND THE CONGRESS building.Also there you will see the equestrian statue of bolivar himself.On the same street you can visit EL MUSEO BOLIVAR,A pink-hued building that has everything from documents,rifles to swords. Museum is open tuesday-friday 9-noon,2-6,closed saturday and monday.
    ONE OF THE UNIQUE THINGS TO DO IS CARACAS BY CABLE CAR
    One of the best sites in the world is to glide into caracas from the 7,000 foot MOUNT AVILA PEAK CABLE CAR AT NIGHT.

  • Climb the Avilar (sp?) mountain.
    Every Sunday it would seem that the locals take the tour up the mountain.
    Beware, if you are unfit or have only just arrived you must take it easy the air is very thin compared to sea level.
    An amazing view of the whole of Caracas.

    I took a 1 week Spanish course at the Centro Venezolano de Espanol. It was located near the Plaza Venezuela. In the picture, you can see the Philips Building which is where the classes were held.
    Customized course for the short time I would be there so that I could brush up on my Spanish skills.

    Buildings constructed and painted in the old Venezuelan style. This neocolonial town, located 9 miles (15km) southeast of downtown, is a great place to spend a few leisurely hours and grab a meal.
    They also have a large shop with handmade souvenirs called HANNSI http://www.hannsi.com.ve/

    Buses run between Caracas and El Hatillo at regular intervals throughout the day. Por puestos leave from Avenida Humbolt near the Chacaito metro stop; the fare is 250Bs (30˘). Metro bus route 202, beginning near the Altamira metro station, also goes to El Hatillo; the fare is 360Bs (50˘). A taxi to El Hatillo should cost around 7,000Bs ($9.75).
