Lonely Planet review

Rising like a gigantic concrete bunker across the street from Parque Central (and linked to it by a footbridge), the Complejo Cultural Teresa Carreño is a modern performing arts center. Opened in 1983, it has an enormous main auditorium, theater and side hall that regularly host concerts, ballets, plays and recitals by local and visiting performers.

Guided tours around the complex are conducted throughout the day; call in advance if you need an English-speaking guide. At the back of the building is a small museum dedicated to Teresa Carreño (1853-1917), Venezuela's most renowned pianist.
