Caracas | Venezuela

Caracas is the capital and largest city of Venezuela. Located in the north of the country, Caracas is contained entirely within a valley of the Venezuelan central range, and separated from the Caribbean coast by a roughly 15 km expanse of El Ávila National Park

As the economy of oil-rich Venezuela grew steadily during the first part of the twentieth century, Caracas became one of Latin America's economic centers, and was also known as the preferred travel hub between Europe and South America. During the 1950s, Caracas began an intensive modernization program that continued throughout the 1960s and early 1970s.

In 2007 D3 was commissioned by a private consortium to conduct a design and venue analysis for Caracas to host an international motorsport event.
