PARQUE DEL ESTE - MIRANDA

On weekends, this green space is the classic rendezvous of the Caraqueños who come to the family. This very, very lively park - where you can find lizards, turtles, snakes, parrots and giant reeds, offers an excellent promenade. A small zoo where you can see Orinoco inlet and some monkeys. Don't miss the terrarium, especially. You can avoid going to the Humboldt Planetarium, of poor quality (meetings at on Saturdays and every hour on Sundays, from 14 am to 17 pm), unless you want to admire the reconstitution of Caracas sky, invisible at night due to pollution. In 2011, the government built a replica of the Leander, the boat with which Francisco de Miranda landed to the Vela de Coro. It is on this privileged site for a capital that the students of French Lycée come through the test of endurance bin (poor choux!).
