Central North Attractions

The Central North or "El Centro" comprises less than 3% of the country's land but is home to approximately 45% of the population. Almost half of these people live in Caracas.

Some of the highlights in this region include Henri Pittier National Park, known for it's excellent birding and beaches, the offshore islands of Los Roques with their white sand beaches, and El Avila National Park, a refreshing mountainous area just outside of Caracas.

The major cities in the Central North are Caracas, Maracay, and Valencia.
