Hipolita Bolívar and Fernando Peñalver Park, Urban park in Valencia, Venezuela.
Hipolita Bolívar and Fernando Peñalver Park is a large green space in Valencia stretching along the Cabriales River with walking paths, wooded areas, and equestrian facilities. The different zones create opportunities for walking through nature and finding places for relaxation or outdoor activities.
The park opened in 1993 and honors Fernando Peñalver, the first president of Carabobo State. It was developed as a major green space project for the city of Valencia.
The outdoor concert shell draws local musicians and audiences for year-round performances of Venezuelan music and art. This space reflects how the community gathers to celebrate and share artistic expressions that matter to daily life.
The park is open from Tuesday through Sunday with entry points along Paseo Cabriales Avenue. Wear sturdy shoes since the paths cross varying terrain and can become slippery after rain.
The park functions as Valencia's primary environmental reserve, nestled between major highways and the urban core. This location gives it an important ecological role despite being surrounded by city infrastructure.
