The Our Lady of the Assumption Cathedral in Maracay, Venezuela, displays a notable architectural design and serves as a prominent Catholic church. The infrastructure is in need of general maintenance to address concerns about its deteriorated roof, which poses potential danger if pieces of wood were to fall and injure someone. Additionally, with the arrival of winter, extra attention must be given to ensure safety. Despite being temporarily closed due to the pandemic, the cathedral retains its charm and aesthetic appeal.
(Translated by Google) Totally comfortable environment for the prayer and meditation necessary these days, the staff who were there at night were very friendly and guided those of us who were unknown, the lady who was there from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm while I was there and was the one who placed the stickers on the chest, really very polite and kind, thousands of blessings for her, a lady who only exudes love.
Congratulations to those who contributed to the decoration and singing.

Ambiente totalmente confortable para la oración y meditación necesaria en estos días, el personal que estaba en la noche muy amable y lo guiaban a los que desconocíamos, la señora que estuvo desde las 8:00 pm hasta las 10:00 pm mientras yo estaba y era la que colocaba las calcomanías en el pecho de verdad muy educada y amable, miles de bendiciones para ella, una señora que solo emana amor.
Felicidades a los que contribuyeron en la decoración y canto.

(Translated by Google) Experiencing a Mass here, combined with the grand structure, the well-decorated, and the beautiful space, is a truly wonderful experience.
The images are incredible; the children's room where the rest of the images are displayed on the walls is very elegant and beautiful. Seeing Christ on the cross on the altar leaves you speechless. The vastness of the space makes it an unparalleled experience, especially if you like churches with unique structures.
(Original)
Vivir una misa aquí y si lo juntas con la gran estructura, lo buen decorado y muy bueno que es el espacio es una gran experiencia.
Las imágenes qué están son increíbles, es muy elegante y bonito los niños dónde tienen al resto de imágenes por las paredes, en el altar ver al Cristo en la cruz te deja sin palabras y con lo grande que se ve el espacio es una experiencia sin igual y más si te gustan las iglesias con estructuras únicas
(Translated by Google) The Cathedral of San José de Maracay, also known and called the Cathedral of Maracay, is a Catholic religious building located between Bolívar and Miranda avenues in the city of Maracay, Aragua State. The Cathedral of Maracay is the episcopal seat of the diocese of Maracay, but unlike other cathedrals in Venezuelan cities that are located in front of (the main square of the town), today a Plaza Bolívar, the Cathedral of Maracay, is located in front of Plaza Girardot, which was established to honor Atanasio Girardot, hero of independence.
In this Church, special worship is paid to Jesus of Divine Mercy. The Diocese was created by bull of Pope Pius XII in 1958.
When it was created, it began as the "Church of Maracay" built on the land of the Marquis of Mijares at the end of the 17th century, with its first parish priest being Francisco Pérez Estopiñán in 1701.

En esta Iglesia se rinde culto especial a Jesús de la Divina Misericordia. La Diócesis fue creada por bula del Papa Pío XII en el año 1.958.
Cuando fue creada empezó como la "Iglesia de Maracay" construida en los terrenos del Marqués de Mijares a finales del siglo xvii siendo su primer párroco Francisco Pérez Estopiñán en 1701.

(Translated by Google) Girardot Square is the name given to a square and a monument located in the Girardot Municipality of the city of Maracay, the capital of the Aragua State. It was named in honor of the hero Atanasio Girardot, Simón Bolívar's collaborator in campaigns in both Venezuela and Colombia, and who died in the Battle of Bárbula in Carabobo.
The square is located in the central part of the city between Mariño and Soublette streets in front of the Maracay Cathedral. It has various monuments and a space for the flags of Venezuela, the Aragua state and the Girardot Municipality.
In the center of the plaza, apart from the monument to the Hero, rests a pedestal with a bronze eagle, honoring the Americans who were executed in the city of Puerto Cabello for collaborating with Miranda in 1806. The monument was inaugurated on July 5, 1897.
(Original)
La plaza Girardot es el nombre que recibe una plaza y un monumento localizado en el Municipio Girardot de la ciudad de Maracay la capital del Estado Aragua. Fue llamada así en honor del prócer Atanasio Girardot, colaborador de Simón Bolívar en campañas tanto en Venezuela como en Colombia, y quien muriese en la Batalla de Bárbula en Carabobo.
La plaza se sitúa en la parte central de la ciudad entre las calles Mariño y Soublette frente a la Catedral de Maracay Posee diversos monumentos y un espacio para las banderas de Venezuela, el estado Aragua y el Municipio Girardot.
Al centro de la plaza a parte del monumento al Prócer, descansa un pedestal con un águila de bronce, honrando a los estadounidenses que fueron ejecutados en la ciudad de Puerto Cabello por colaborar con el Miranda en 1.806. El monumento fue inaugurado el 5 de julio de 1897.
(Translated by Google) Completely arranged, the square is very beautiful, they fixed it up for this Christmas season, it is a historical site, the center of Maracay in colonial times. Right now decorated for Christmas, a lot of security.
(Original)
Totalmente arreglada, muy bonita la plaza, la arreglaron para esta temporada navideña, es un sitio histórico, centro de maracay en la época colonial. Ahorita adornada de Navidad, mucha seguridad.
(Translated by Google) Girardot Square is located in the heart of the city of Maracay, it was recently remodeled. It has several benches to sit and rest and talk for a while as well as observe and interact with the squirrels that live in the trees it has. It should be noted that this square needs, in my personal opinion, a greater number of trees. It has a source which is currently not operational. There are multiple banking entities around the square, which is very useful, as well as the bus stop on Bolívar Avenue.
(Original)
La plaza Girardot está ubicada en pleno corazón de la ciudad de Maracay, recientemente fué remodelada. Dispone de varios bancos para sentarse a reposar y conversar un rato así como observar e interactuar con las ardillas que habitan en los árboles que dispone, cabe destacar que esta plaza necesita a mi opinión personal de mayor cantidad de árboles. Dispone una fuente la cual actualmente no está operativa. Alrededor de la plaza se ubican múltiples entidades bancarias lo cual resulta muy útil así como la parada de autobuses en plena avenida Bolívar.
(Translated by Google) This square occupies the space from which Maracay was formed as a populated center. It consists of a quadrilateral bordered by a ring of gardens and delimited by Bolívar Avenue, the Cathedral, the headquarters of the Anthropology and History Museums and the old National Barracks. The floor is covered in red cement slabs and in the center there is an ornamental fountain with the bronze statue of Atanasio Girardot, a replica of the work of Lorenzo González located in Bárbula, Carabobo state. Towards the south side an obelisk stands in memory of the Americans who in 1806 accompanied Francisco de Miranda to Ocumare de la Costa and were executed in Puerto Cabello. This square was also known as "El Águila" square due to the representation of this bird that tops the obelisk and was surrounded by a double iron railing with flower and arabesque motifs, imported from New York by order of Joaquín Crespo. This railing was dismantled in the 1950s and reinstalled in the Felipe Guevara Rojas Park and the Maracay Zoo.
(Original)
Está plaza ocupa el espacio a partir del cual se formó Maracay como centro poblado. Consiste en un cuadrilátero bordeado por un anillo de jardines y delimitado por la avenida Bolívar, la Catedral, la sede de los Museos de Antropología e Historia y el antiguo Cuartel Nacional. El piso está revestido en losas de cemento coloreado de rojo y en el centro se ubica una fuente ornamental con la estatua en bronce de Atanasio Girardot, réplica de la obra de Lorenzo González ubicada en Bárbula, estado Carabobo. Hacia el costado sur se levanta un obelisco en memoria de los estadounidenses que en 1806 acompañaron a Francisco de Miranda a Ocumare de la Costa y fueron ejecutados en Puerto Cabello. Esta plaza fue conocida también como plaza "El Águila" debido a la representación de esta ave que remata el obelisco y estaba rodeada por una baranda doble de hierro con motivos de flores y arabescos, importada de Nueva York por orden de Joaquín Crespo. Esta baranda fue desmontada en la década de 1950 y reinstalada en el Parque Felipe Guevara Rojas y en el Zoológico de Maracay.
(Translated by Google) Maracay's emblematic square, quiet, in the heart of the city, ideal for taking a break from shopping.

(Translated by Google) Since it was recovered and remodeled, it is a quite beautiful icon of the city of Maracay, located in front of the bicentennial plaza that was damaged with that remodeling in my opinion. And located next to the Maracay cathedral.
(Original)
Desde que fue recuperada y remodelada es un lugar bastante hermoso icono de la ciudad de Maracay ubicada el frente de la plaza bicentenaria que la dañaron con esa remodelación a mi parecer. Y ubicada a un lateral de la catedral de Maracay

Park
Plaza Bolívar is more than just a square in Maracay - it's a vibrant cultural center where locals gather, street performers entertain, and history comes alive. Surrounded by significant buildings like the Government Palace, this plaza is the largest in Venezuela and holds great historical importance. While some feel it could use better maintenance, others find it to be a beautiful and well-kept park that's perfect for leisurely strolls or reminiscing about times gone by.
It had been a long time since I was here. Actually it is a very nice place to walk reminiscing times long past. I invite you to stop by...hagamos que Maracay siga siendo La Ciudad Jardín...

(Translated by Google) The park has a diverse collection of very beautiful trees, as well as beautiful free fauna. I suggest that trees could be identified for environmental education. Gardens require more watering. There are some remote areas with garbage. The workers are friendly. The banks require repairs. The fields are in good condition and are used by many young people. It is a privilege to have a park near our house to walk and recreate. More parks of this type are required in Maracay.

El parque posee una coleccion diversa de árboles muy hermosos, así como fauna libre con mucha belleza. Sugiero que los árboles podrían estar identificados en pro de la educación ambiental. Los jardines requieren un mayor riego. Hay algunas zonas alejadas con basura. Los trabajadores son amables. Los bancos requieren reparaciones. Las canchas están en buen estado y son utilizadas por muchos jóvenes. Es un privilegio tener un parque cerca de nuestra casa para caminar y recrearse. Se requieren más parques de este tipo en Maracay.

Zoo
Las Delicias Zoo, spanning 7 hectares, is home to a variety of native Venezuelan animals such as panthers, hawks, and crocodiles. More than just a place for animal viewing, the zoo focuses on education and conservation efforts. Visitors can learn about wildlife while enjoying the company of exotic creatures. The zoo has made an impressive recovery with well-cared-for animals in excellent condition and friendly staff.
(Translated by Google) It was a great experience visiting this zoo, I thought the place was very well cared for, as were the animals. The restaurant there is very friendly and the food is spectacular, it is recommended to take a walk here.

it is not a zoo anymore
(Translated by Google) The animals are in good condition, the gardens are beautiful, and it's an ideal place to breathe in the greenery and connect with nature. The caretakers are friendly, however; I've been there three times, and each time the museum staff have been less than cordial. This is an important aspect to consider.
(Original)
Los animales están en buen estado, la jardinería está muy bella, es un espacio ideal para ir a respirar verde y conectar con la naturaleza. Los cuidadores son amables, sin embargo; he ido en 3 oportunidades y en cada una de ellas las personas encargadas del área del museo han sido poco cordiales, es un aspecto importante a considerar.
(Translated by Google) It's nice, with some areas free of animals, but the ones that are there seem well cared for. There was only one kiosk inside with water, soft drinks, and Lipton tea. We would have liked to find options like natural juices or coconut water, popcorn, or something else for the children.
The entrance fee is very affordable, the tour is pleasant, there's a pet farm, and they sell food for the pet animals at the entrance. We would definitely return.
(Original)
Se encuentra bonito, algunas áreas sin animales, pero los que están se ven bien atendidos. Había un solo kiosko dentro con agua, refrescos y te lipton.. nos habría gustado encontrar opciones como jugos naturales o agua de coco, cotufas o algo más para los niños.
El costo de la entrada es muy accesible, el recorrido es agradable, hay granja de contacto y en la entrada venden el alimento para esos animales de contacto. Si volveríamos.
(Translated by Google) I went with two small children. It's a small zoo, but despite the fact that there are quite a few empty cages, I still think there are plenty of little animals for the kids to have fun with. They even have a contact area for feeding the animals. The bird area is particularly noteworthy; there are quite a few of them and it's very pretty.
(Original)
Fui con dos niños pequeños , Es un zoológico pequeño, pero a pesar de que hay bastantes jaula vacías, igualmente considero que hay bastantes animalitos para que los niños se distraigan un rato, incluso tienen un área de contacto para darle de comer a animalitos. Destaca el área de las aves , hay bastantes y está bien bonito.
(Translated by Google) The zoo is very well maintained, the staff is very friendly, and there's a variety of animals. Honestly, they're restoring the site, but it's worth a visit; there's parking.

Bullring
Nestled in the heart of Maracay, the Plaza de Toros Maestranza César Girón is a stunning bullring that boasts a fascinating history and architectural beauty. Inaugurated on January 20, 1933, this eclectic structure was designed by the esteemed architect Carlos Raúl Villanueva and has become an iconic symbol of the city. Even for those who may not be enthusiasts of bullfighting, attending events here offers a unique experience filled with vibrant atmosphere and cultural richness.

Monumental
(Translated by Google) Beautiful structure of the Maestranza de Maracay can only be seen externally, the sculptures look good but they are missing the plaques that indicate when they were made and I suppose that the figure of the bullfighter is Cesar Girón, an emblematic figure in the bullfighting festivals of Venezuela and the world.
(Original)
Hermosa estructura de la Maestranza de Maracay solo se puede ver externamente, las esculturas se ven bien pero les falta las placas que indiquen cuando las hicieron y supongo que la figura del torero es Cesar Girón, una figura emblemática en las fiestas taurinas de Venezuela y del mundo.
(Translated by Google) The Cesar Girón Bullring or Maestranza de Maracay was inaugurated on January 20, 1933 as the Maracay Bullring. The building has an eclectic style and a reinforced concrete structure, it was designed by Carlos Raúl Villanueva. This building is among the main works of the renowned architect and today constitutes the iconographic building par excellence of the city. Highlights include its chapel dedicated to the Virgin of the Macarena, with walls covered in tiles, as well as the elaborate presidential box, known as the west mosque, and the perimeter gallery with an archway with Moorish lines. It is named in honor of the famous native bullfighter of Maracay, César Girón. This building was declared a National Historical Monument by Official Gazette No. 35,441 of April 15, 1994. It is currently closed but there is a rehabilitation project underway.

La Plaza de Toros Cesar Girón o Maestranza de Maracay fue inaugurada el 20 de enero de 1933 como Plaza de Toros de Maracay. La edificación es de estilo ecléctico y estructura en concreto armado, fue diseñada por Carlos Raúl Villanueva. Este inmueble figura entre las principales obras del connotado arquitecto y constituye hoy día la edificación iconográfica por excelencia de la ciudad. Destacan su capilla dedicada a la Virgen de la Macarena, con paredes revestidas de azulejos, así como el elaborado palco presidencial, conocido como mezquita oeste, y la galería perimetral con arcada de líneas moriscas. Lleva en su honor el nombre del famoso torero nativo de Maracay, César Girón. Esta edificación fue declarada Monumento Histórico Nacional mediante Gaceta Oficial nº 35.441 del 15 de abril de 1994.

(Translated by Google) Personally, I am not a fan of bullfighting events, however the Maestranza César Girón is an icon of Maracay, full of many anecdotes, history, among many things; place where events of all kinds have been held such as concerts, television programs, festivals.
I remember as a child that my mothers took me to see the bullfight of the dwarf bullfighters, however it is unfortunate how these spaces are in deplorable deterioration and abandonment, I believe that even though bullfights are no longer held, it is still a significant architectural space both for the City of Maracay and for the rest of the country.
I hope that one day those spaces can be recovered and promote the culture that this country lacks so much today.

En lo personal no soy aficionado a los eventos taurinos, sin embargo la Maestranza César Girón es un icono de Maracay, lleno de muchas anécdotas, historia, entre tantas cosas; lugar donde se han celebrado eventos de todo tipo como conciertos, programas de televisión, festivales.
Recuerdo de niño que mis madres me llevaban a ver la corrida de los enanitos toreros, sin embargo es lamentable como estos espacios se encuentran en deplorable deterioro y abandono, creo que por más que ya no se realicen corridas de toros sigue siendo un espacio arquitectónico significativo tanto para la Ciudad de Maracay como para el resto del País.
Espero que algún día esos espacios puedan ser recuperados y fomentar la cultura que tanto le hace falta a este país hoy en día.

El Limón, located in the state of Aragua, Venezuela, is a historical city known for its significance in cane sugar production since colonial times. Situated on the eastern side of Lake Valencia and close to Maracay, it has evolved into an industrial and commercial center with a strong military influence. Despite its historical importance and industrial development, mass tourism has not yet fully embraced this area.

Military Museums
The Aeronautics Museum is a superb exhibition center that showcases the complete timeline of Military Aviation in Venezuela, capturing its origins and other fascinating aspects. It would be beneficial to have permanent guides who accompany visitors during their tour. The entrance fee for this exceptional museum is only $1. Additionally, it serves as an active destination where one can peacefully stroll around and enjoy quality time with children.

(Translated by Google) I visited from Caracas. It's a great place to take the kids for a ride on the planes. I think that despite the fact that they appear to be in basic maintenance, the planes are dirty and covered in cobwebs, and some vegetation is uncut. Just seeing all these planes and allowing the kids to ride on them, and taking the photos, is totally worth it. They'll never forget that memory. Admission was free when I went. It's worth the visit.
(Original)
Fui de visita desde Caracas, Excelente para darte un paseito con niños y se monten en los aviones. Me parece que a pesar de parecer estar con mantenimiento básico , los aviones están sucios y con telarañas por dentro , alguna vegetación sin cortar, el simple hecho de ver esos aviones de todo tipo y que los niños se puedan montar en ellos, y las fotos, ya vale la pena totalmente , ese recuerdo jamás se les va a olvidar, cuando fui la entrada estaba gratis. Vale la pena la visita.

(Translated by Google) An excellent place to learn about Venezuela's aeronautical history. However, there are no specific legends on the planes, so you can learn a little more. A great place to explore and share with the family. That's not why it gets 5 stars. General admission $1.

Baseball
Nestled in the vibrant city of Maracay, the Jose Perez Colmenares Stadium stands as a proud home to the Tigres de Aragua baseball team. This venue is not just about baseball; it’s part of a larger sports complex that includes the oval-shaped Velodromo cycle velodrome and the Polideportivo David Concepcion sports center. While some visitors have noted that ticket prices can be on the higher side, many still find themselves captivated by the electric atmosphere during games.

The neighborhood boasts excellent security that ensures safety and cleanliness throughout the area. While it may be somewhat remote from urban centers, this seclusion allows for affordable living options without sacrificing comfort or amenities.

(Translated by Google) It's a quiet and welcoming neighborhood. The only drawback is its remoteness, but thanks to that, you can buy an apartment at a low price and enjoy services such as constant water because it has its own deep well, direct gas, private security, internet service, and an excellent condominium.
I prefer to live in a secluded and quiet area rather than a central location where the services are limited.
(Original)
Es una urbanización tranquila y acogedora, la única desventaja es lo retirado, pero gracias a eso, puedes comprar un apartamento a bajo costo y disfrutar de servicios como: agua constante porque tiene pozo profundo propio, gas directo, vigilancia privada, servicio de internet y un excelente condominio.
Yo prefiero vivir en algo retirado y tranquilo ante algo céntrico y que fallen los servicios.
(Translated by Google) This development is very well organized, they deliver CLAP periodically, they have their own deep well (that is, they never lack water, of course, unless the power goes out), there is excellent security that is aware of any incident; everything is very clean: the bad thing about this development is its location, how far from civilization it is.

(Translated by Google) It is the first bakery that one finds when entering Maracay via tapa tapa via Av Bolivar Oeste, they have good breakfasts and a variety of products, what they really need is that they have to consider the prices, I think that sometimes they are exaggerated for the reach of the pockets of people with fewer resources, and the facilities are not adequate to handle those prices!! I would understand if their infrastructure was of higher quality for better comfort for their customers, only three stars!!! They should improve their services, recommendation it has an excellent location, they should take advantage of it for the better!!!

Museum
The Abreu Museum of Contemporary Art, located on Avenida Sucre in Plaza Girardot, is a must-visit for art enthusiasts.

Visitors can explore diverse collections, purchase books, and enjoy free access to special exhibits like the 40th Aragua 2016 National Art Salon until July.
A good place to relaxed. You can see a different type of art and history about Colombia.

(Translated by Google) A few years ago the museum was in good condition and they sold excellent books.
Unfortunately, like many places in the state of Aragua, we have had and suffered from the worst management by government entities and it has been closed and under repair for a long time.
And meanwhile, day by day, culture is being diluted in the new generations of the city who do not have adequate spaces to forge civic and citizen sentiment for the future of the nation.
I hope that this museum, as well as all the museums, squares, parks, statues, fountains, plaques and flags, etc. May they one day be valued again by the competent authorities so that in this way they will be given the honor that the Liberating Fathers and all Venezuelans deserve.

Ojalá que este museo, así como todos los museos, plazas, parques, estatuas, fuentes, placas y banderas, etc. Sean algún día nuevamente valorado por las autoridades compétentes para que de esta forma se le de el honor que merecen los Padres Liberadores y todos los venezolanos.

Very well maintained, you can get there by metro; the La Hoyada station is very close.

(Translated by Google) This park occupies a large wooded area delimited by buildings on its east and west sides, but open to the north and south, towards Santos Michelena Street and Bolívar Avenue. This park was created between 1938 and 1940 as a Children's Park, and the cast iron and wrought iron fences that delimit it on its north and south sides, respectively, stand out. Since 2003, the walls that serve as the base of the southern lattice have featured a mural in ceramic cutouts by the plastic artist J. J. Moros.
