Venezuela: Caracas – Colinas de Valle Arriba

Colinas de Valle Arriba is the spectacular valley in southeastern hills of Caracas, very upscale and this is where most of not all foreign embassies are located. Beyond the expansive US Embassy complex, the broader Valle Arriba hills host multiple ambassadorial residences, diplomatic missions, elite private schools, and the Valle Arriba Golf Club. Because Colinas de Valle Arriba sits on a high natural shelf forming the southern wall of the Caracas basin, the crest provides sweeping 360-degree vistas across the entire valley.
