Lonely Planet review

This renovated fragment of a 220-year-old coffee hacienda, La Estancia houses a fine museum with works by Venezuelan artists and displays on the plantation's history, as well as a graphic arts library. Property of the Simón Bolívar family until 1895, it is now owned by Petróleos de Venezuela Sociedad Anónima (PDVSA), the national oil company. Continuous guided tours of the installations are offered (English docents available), and concerts are staged in the patio on weekends.
