La Blanquera, Colonial landmark in San Carlos, Venezuela
The white-painted building features Baroque decorative elements, including columns with aboriginal figures wearing traditional feathered headdresses.
Built by Don Joseph Blanco y Salazar in the late 18th century, the house became a strategic meeting point for generals planning the Battle of Carabobo in 1821.
The museum displays an extensive collection of colonial artifacts, including an antique printing press and a church bell dated from 1801.
Located at the intersection of Bolivar and Falcon avenues, the museum offers guided tours showcasing Venezuelan colonial history through preserved architectural elements.
The structure contains original aboriginal-themed decorative elements commissioned by a Spanish cattle rancher family from Andalucia during the colonial period.
