El Paraíso, Administrative parish in central Caracas, Venezuela.
El Paraíso is an administrative parish in central Caracas that includes residential neighborhoods and government buildings. The area features a mix of housing styles alongside public services and institutions distributed throughout its boundaries.
This administrative parish began developing in the late 1800s as Caracas expanded outward from its center. Government institutions and residential development in the early 1900s established the foundation for its current layout.
The parish is home to schools and sports facilities that serve as community gathering places for residents. These institutions shape how people spend their time and connect with one another in daily life.
The parish is accessible by multiple transportation routes and main roads connect through the area. Travel during peak hours may experience delays at busy intersections, so planning your route in advance helps.
The area was home to early experiments with prefabricated building techniques that were uncommon in the region. Some of these construction approaches can still be noticed in older residential projects in the neighborhood.
