Esp/Eng Plaza el venezolano; a public space with more than 200 years of history!
Con 42 años de edad, y viviendo en Venezuela, nunca había tenido la oportunidad de visitar la capital Caracas, hasta hace poco que surgió un viaje por asuntos médicos, pero, por supuesto no podía desperdiciar la oportunidad de visitar todos los lugares posibles, jejejej, incluida la casa natal de nuestro libertador Simón Bolívar, que es una visita obligada al visitar Caracas, por su valor histórico; por supuesto que la visite, y, me encontré en sus afueras con esta plaza que tiene mas de 200 años de historia, y es hoy en día un lugar muy visitado por los lugareños y visitantes.
Esta plaza fue declarada monumento historico nacional, debido a su importancia histórica en el año 1977, aun asi se utilizaba para la economia informal, pero en el año 2005 fue recuperada y quedo como una plaza pública, para el disfrute de las personas.
With 42 years of age, and living in Venezuela, I had never had the opportunity to visit the capital Caracas, until recently that a trip for medical matters arose, but, of course I could not miss the opportunity to visit all possible places, hehehehej, including the birthplace of our liberator Simon Bolivar, which is a must when visiting Caracas, for its historical value; of course I visited it, and, I found in its outskirts with this square that has more than 200 years of history, and is today a very visited place by locals and visitors.
This square was declared a national historical monument, due to its historical importance in 1977, even so it was used for the informal economy, but in 2005 it was recovered and became a public square, for the enjoyment of the people.
Para sus inicios se encontraba en la plaza un reloj de sol elaborado en mármol, que fue destruido por el terremoto de 1812; pero que fue reconstruido y todavía permanece allí, además de una fuente en el medio; hoy en día cuenta con un monumento de 47 metros de altura, y más de 2 metros de ancho, que se va haciendo mas y mas delgada a medida que va subiendo, está pintada en rojo y negro, y tiene en su base una inscripción en honor al 19 de Abril de 1810, cuando se firma el acta de la independencia venezolana.
Rodeada por grandes edificios como el del BDV, tiene una hermosa vista, además tiene árboles que dan fresca sombra para descansar durante el dia, cuenta tambien con bancas con respaldo, hechas de bronce y madera pulida, hermosos faros y escaleras para acceder.
Así que si vas a Caracas, no dejes de visitar esta hermosa plaza, al frente quedan tiendas y ventas de comida, puedes comprar algo para comer y sentarte a disfrutar el paisaje mientras descansas!
Espero te haya gustado el recorrido por esta plaza nos vemos en la proxima entrega para seguir compartiendo de mi viaje a la capital de venezuela!
Dios te bendiga!
For its beginnings was in the square a sundial made of marble, which was destroyed by the earthquake of 1812, but was rebuilt and still remains there, plus a fountain in the middle; Today it has a monument of 47 meters high, and more than 2 meters wide, which becomes thinner and thinner as it goes up, it is painted in red and black, and has at its base an inscription in honor of April 19, 1810, when the act of Venezuelan independence was signed.
Surrounded by large buildings such as the BDV, has a beautiful view, also has trees that give cool shade to rest during the day, also has benches with back, made of bronze and polished wood, beautiful lighthouses and stairs to access.
So if you go to Caracas, be sure to visit this beautiful square, in front there are stores and food sales, you can buy something to eat and sit and enjoy the scenery while you rest!
I hope you liked the tour of this square, see you in the next installment to continue sharing my trip to the capital of Venezuela!
God bless you!
