Plaza de Las Tres Gracias, National historical monument in Municipio Libertador, Venezuela.

The rectangular plaza features a reflective pool with curved contours, surrounded by concrete benches and green spaces with shrubs.

Built in 1946 under architect Joseph Mimó I Mena and businessman Armando Planchart, the plaza received its current name replacing Plaza de Bellas Artes.

The central marble sculpture by Pietro Ceccarelli replicates Antonio Canova's work depicting Greek goddesses Thalia, Euphrosine, and Aglaea.

The plaza connects directly to Ciudad Universitaria metro station, making it easily accessible for visitors to the Central University of Venezuela.

In 2020, the removal of weeping willows by city officials generated protests from local residents who considered these trees part of public heritage.
