Puerto Ordaz, Administrative division in Bolívar State, Venezuela

Puerto Ordaz extends along the south bank of the Orinoco River, forming the western section of Ciudad Guayana at the convergence with Caroní River.

The Orinoco Mining Company and Venezuelan Corporation of Guayana established Puerto Ordaz in 1952 as part of the regional industrial development strategy.

The architecture of Puerto Ordaz reflects mid-20th century North American suburban design influences, stemming from the involvement of US Steel corporations.

The city connects to major transportation networks through the Orinoquia Bridge over the Orinoco River and maintains regular flights from local airports.

Puerto Ordaz houses multiple industrial facilities, including Alcasa and Sidor, while natural features like Cachamay Falls and Llovizna Falls border the urban area.
