El Silencio/ Downtown

History at a glance! El Silencio proudly showcases Venezuela's rich history, with architectural gems from the 17th and 18th Centuries. This part of Caracas is well worth a visit. Places such as Plaza Bolívar, the Catedral Metropolitana de Caracas, dating from 1665, the Casa Natal El Libertador, the house where Simón Bolívar, the Liberator, was born; the 17th century La Casa Amarilla, once a prison, but now used by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs; El Capitolio Nacional, seat of the legislative council; the Teatro Nacional, El Panteón Nacional, the resting place for prominent Venezuelans; the Basílica de Santa Teresa; El Palacio de Miraflores, the presidential palace, and the Museo Arturo Michelena, should not be forgotten.
