Park of the East Rómulo Betancourt This beautiful park is a true alternative for the native of Caracas, offering a great variety of scenes cultivated with different types from Venezuelan vegetation. Account with a small sample of the Venezuelan fauna, which appears simulating its natural habitat. The park, in addition, is a paradise for the lovers of the sport activities, because in him they meet, from early hours in the morning, the trotadores and runners who have in the park a true oasis. It has a great variety of kioskos to make celebrations and other activities infantile. The people interested in making this type of activity must ask for the authorization of the Department of Administration of the Park of the East. Leave a Comment

In the map, I thought Parque Central was a really huge park, with some greenery at least. Gosh, how wrong I was! It actually is a huge massive series of inter-connected buildings, very very grey, ugly and old. At the basement, there is a maze of shops and restaurants but I was highly amused by how RETRO this place looked. It was built in the 1960s and has two of the tallest towers in Venezuela. One of the towers, Torre Este, had a huge fire in October 2004 on the top handful of floors, and so, that part of the ‘park’ was a complete disaster when I was there, as workers closed up certain areas to restore the tower. I am sure it is restored now. The Museo de Teclado, Museo de Los Ninos (Children's Museum) and Museo de Arte Contemporaneo (Museum of Contemporary Art) are located here. Leave a Comment Directions: Get off at Bellas Artes metro station and look around for 2 tall towers. There is a road heading perpendicularly off Avenida Mexico
