Plaza Bolivar

This is the heart of the old town, with an imposing monument to Bolívar in the middle. The equestrian statue was cast in Europe, shipped in pieces, assembled and unveiled in 1874 — later than planned, because the ship carrying it had foundered on the Archipiélago de Los Roques.

Surrounding the “La Plaza Bolivar” are public buildings like Capitolio Nacional, the Catedral Metropolitana, the Foreign Office and the Palacio Municipal.
