Same as I just did with Miranda state, and I will do with those threads where I posted too many pages of pics without spoilers, I'm remaking this thread to make it more readable than the previous version, and I will do the same with the threads of the states Aragua and Carabobo for that same reason. For now, I will just copy and paste all posts from the previous version, but putting the pics in spoilers. And then, I will continue with some other educational institutions from Libertador Municipality that haven't posted so far...
The Libertador Municipality (Municipio Libertador in Spanish) is the only administrative division of the Capital District. With a population of roughly 2.1 million inhabitants, a surface are of 433 square kilometers, and at an average altitude of 909 meters above sea level, the Libertador municipality occupies roughly the western half of the city of Caracas plus some rural mountain areas on the west, including the mountain town of El Junquito (1700 meters above sea level). This Capital district, along with the 4 municipalites of eastern Caracas that belong to Miranda state (Sucre, Chacao, El Hatillo and Baruta) conform the Caracas Metropolitan District (Distrito Metropolitano de Caracas).
Location of Libertador Municipality (main map showing its location between Vargas (or La Guaira) state in the north and Miranda state in the east and south, and small map showing its location within Venezuela on the bottom right):
Another more detailed map showing how it roughly occupies the western half of Caracas, some mountainous areas to the west up to the town of El Junquito and the Macarao National park (in the SW), and the southern outskirts of the mountains (El Avila National Park) that separate Caracas from the Caribbean sea:
Map showing the different parishes of Libertador Municipality (Capital District), which I will mention when posting pics and videos:
Flag of the Capital District:
Coat of Arms that it always had since colonial times (and it should have kept it always like that) on the left, Vs the stupid coat of Arms (made in this stupid revolution) that it has since 2022 to present :
They changed the previous coat of arms and the anthem too
While most of eastern Caracas (excluding the slum of Petare and some few other smaller slums) is full of middle to upper class neighborhoods, the Libertador Municipality has less upper middle and upper class areas. It has financial areas full of high rises, the historical center, many poor slums (barriadas), but also many middle class, and lower middle class neighborhoods.
Resuming: while most of eastern Caracas (excluding Petare and some smaller slums) is middle to upper class, western Caracas (Libertador municipality) is mostly middle to lower class. I mean, it has many middle class areas, and even some few upper-middle to upper class areas, but it has less rich and exclusive areas and some more poorer areas compared to eastern Caracas.
Pics and Videos coming up on next posts...
