Caracas, the dynamic capital city of Venezuela and the country's commercial and cultural hub, is nestled in a lush valley, surrounded by the imposing peaks of the Avila Mountain range, which gives it an enticing blend of an urban grid set against a stunning backdrop of natural beauty. Known for its vibrant nightlife, diverse culinary scene, and rich cultural offerings, it is a city of contrasts where colonial architecture stands next to skyscrapers. Famous for its historic center offering colonial-era landmarks like the neoclassical Capitol and the 17th-century San Francisco Church, Caracas is also the birthplace of Simon Bolivar, the renowned South American liberator. Despite its complex social-political situation, this city continues to be a magnet for adventurous travelers, as it offers an intense, bustling metropolis experience with its intriguing arts scene, from contemporary galleries to fascinating murals dotting the cityscape.
