El Parque Central

Innovation, architecture, art and culture, and the country's two highest towers - if there is any place that shows how modern Caracas is, it is El Parque Central. Located less than a mile to the southeast of La Plaza Bolívar, the park contains a concrete structure with two 53-floor octagonal towers and residential buildings. However, if it is not architecture and structural designs, but rather culture that takes your interest, you will be pleasantly surprised to find a great number of art centers here. In the Complejo Cultural Teresa Carreño, the arts reach their utmost expression, through theater, dance, concerts and ballet performances among others. The most important museums of the city include: Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Caracas Sofía Imber, Museo de los Niños where adults as well as children will find enjoyment, Museo de Ciencias Naturales, Fundación Museo de Bella Artes, and the Galería de Arte Nacional which possesses a permanent collection of more than 3,500 works of art. The immense Botanical Garden and the Ateneo de Caracas, where you will find a cinema, theaters, an art gallery, a cafeteria and a bookstore. To the south of the Botanical Gardens, you will find the largest university in Caracas, the Universidad Central de Venezuela.
