Caracas skyline, Venezuela

Caracas

Today’s travel photo is of Venezuela’s busy capital.

Rumour has it (or even statistics), this is one of the most crime-ridden cities anywhere. It’s even dubbed the world’s murder capital.

Back in the 1990s, I walked all around a city with friendly people everywhere, with nothing remotely threatening or unpleasant happening to me. Would Caracas feel different today?

Have you been to Caracas? What did you think?
