Plaza Bolívar de Calabozo

Plaza Bolívar occupies one block in the center of Calabozo, featuring iron perimeter fencing, decorative lampposts, and concrete benches along terra cotta paths.

The plaza land was shared with the city cathedral until 1918 when the cemetery was relocated to create space for the square and vehicular avenues.

The plaza stands as a main venue for municipal ceremonies and public gatherings, with an equestrian statue of Simón Bolívar at its center.

The square provides multiple seating areas, shaded spaces, and serves as a reference point for navigating to nearby commercial establishments and religious buildings.

Plaza Bolívar de Calabozo is one of only three plazas in Venezuela that maintain perimeter fencing, sharing this characteristic with the squares in Caracas and Coro.
