Municipio Morán, Municipal division in Lara, Venezuela.
The municipality encompasses eight distinct parishes across 2,231 square kilometers of land with varied topography at 625 meters above sea level.
El Tocuyo, the main town of Municipio Morán, served as Venezuela's administrative capital from 1546 to 1548 following its establishment by Juan de Carvajal.
The Gayones Indians established agricultural practices in the valley, cultivating essential crops like corn, cotton, and yucca before Spanish colonization.
The municipality maintains administrative offices where residents can access public services, with Felix Linares serving as the current mayor under PSUVD party.
The transformation from sugar cane cultivation to diverse vegetable production in the 1980s reshaped the agricultural landscape of Municipio Morán.
