    this is a very nice park to spend a whole day and do a picnic, watch the animals, just walk around. It is pretty big so it's good for exercising as well. If you go in the morning you will see a lot of people exercising. Also they offer free yoga classes somewhere around the park. It's easy to get there since you can take the subway and it is right there

    We visited this park on a sunny sunday afternoon, just after we visited the highly rated Centro de l'arte Estancia, which is very nearby. We certainly preferred the Parque del Este which is a huge parc with a lot of interesting nature and animals. It is really gigantic, you can easily spend a whole afternoon, certainly when you take the time to study all the interesting animals (mostly turtles, fish and birds) that live in complete freedom in the parc. We had a drink on the edge of a terrace and we were really in the middle very close to all the animals, many of them very uncommon for us europeans. On sunday it is very crowded and gives a nice insight in how many of the people of Caracas spend their free time. It also feels completely secure, maybe that is different on weekdays, when there are less people, I cannot judge on that.I can imagine that some people feel it could be better maintained, but that certainly did not spoil our visit. On the contrary, you feel way out of the city in real nature instead of being in a well cultured environment. Highly recommended for strolling and watching man and nature.

    Nice place to hang out with your friends and play some sports. They hold free Dance-therapy or Sumba classes every Saturday in the morning. I love that this place gives the option to recycle.

    The typical city park. Centrally located, easy access and ample parking. A huge green and lush park with tropical birds everywhere. People jogging or walking and lovers embracing. Lots of activities like kids parties, judo practice and yoga, football, anything that could be fun outdoors. In a city where security is such a problem, this park is the antidote. Thousands of Caracenos exercising and having fun outdoors. Like Luxembourg in Paris or Central Park in NY. Delightful!

    This must be one of the most beautiful nature parks in the world. Upkeep may not be optimal (after all, this is Caracas) but it is adequate. And the landscaping makes up for any shortcoming.

    Opened in 1961 and designed by world famous Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Max , this is a very good option for enjoying the outdoors. Entrance is free of charge. The park may be reached by car (flat rate parking fee at Bs. 10 as I write) or by Metro. For me, the main attraction is a real size replica of the corvette Leander, used by Francisco de Miranda on an expedition to Venezuela in 1806. There is a free 30 min guided tour of the insides of the ship (in Spanish). Nearby, there is a very nice place where you can get the excellent Cacao Venezuela, either cold or hot, and you can have it with a delicious slice of cake.It would be great to see a bit more effort put into the park's maintenance: many of the animal exhibits have no names, neither do most of the very interesting trees scattered throughout the park (e.g. several cannonball-trees (Couroupita guianensis)). Walking areas ought to be relaid using the trodden paths walked on by the many visitors. All in all, worth a visit, be it to jog, just lay on the grass in the sun or to have a walk around enjoying Nature and looking at the many activities present on weekends (yoga, Tai chi, karate, children's piñata parties, etc.)

    Burle Marx- a world class Brazilian arquitect - designed this lovely place. Again, is difficult toseparate real quality landscaping & gardening with my own childhood experiences of the great time spent here playing, contemplating, sharing, running. Recent times have shown a decline in infrastructure maintenance. It does deserved a visit just to relax and have a great, nearly un obstructed view from the big mountainous range that framed the north side of the city. There is some animals kept captive- not in the best space conditions- but great chance to see the rare American " tiger" ( a couple of nice jaguars sleep on rocks) and the mighty South American eagle( Aguila Arpia) The best kept secret lays in its Astronomic Planetarium. Despite " the vintage" experience of watching the sky reflected on his spherical structure you have the chance to explore a little exhibition around showing some lunar rocks brought back from the Apollo XI

    Caracas as a whole is a sprawling and often menacing city. In the middle, however, is a center of refuge from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Parque del Este probably had it's heyday 20 years ago, but it is still fascinating and beautiful. Walking through the park is like walking through a jungle and exotic plant paradise. It is not uncommon to walk alongside huge iguanas. Some sections of the park are more populated, especially on the weekends when hundreds of young people practice break dancing, cheerleading, parkour, and a host of sports. If you are an American or European visitor you may initially feel intimidated but our family has been there two times and both experiences have been pleasant. I have been to many parks in South America and the Parque del Este is definitely one of the most impressive even if it has seen better days.

    Years ago this was a very nice park to have fun with family. Main entrance if filthy and really loud. Once inside it gets better, but no so much. If you want to jog very early, it is ok to do it

    It's a big park in the middle of the city. It's right next to the Miranda subway station and it has parking lots. It's free. Many locals go there in the morning to walk or jog, and people also take kids to see the animals (the zoo-like part of the park). Sadly, the animals are not as well kept as they were in the past, but it's still nice to see them. There's also a place dedicated to reptiles and one to birds. On weekend mornings there are usually work-out activities.

    It's a huge space with something for everyone. There are basketball courts, soccer fields and several small parks for children. They have a small zoo with alligators, a tiger and lemurs. There's also a reptilian section that costs a small fee to enter. The Leander boat replica is under construction (as of July 2013), but it offers a very informative and interactive tour. Mid-week is great because there aren't as many visitors, but there are also fewer vendors selling snacks and toys.

    A lovely park in the middle of the city. The park has a metro station, the station is directly outside the park. There are many plants typical of the country and animals to look at. The animals are fenced. There are minor water areas. I was there on a Saturday, there were many activities and many people but there is plenty of room.

    Beautiful park in Caracas with some poorly maintained monkeys and birds, and full of great people watching as caraqueños stroll here on a daily basis. Come on Sunday morning for a tai chi class or to watch some very talented kids break dance of perform capoiera.
