Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Caracas right now.
Caraqueños are style-conscious, which accounts for the city's numerous modern shopping centers. Jewelry (especially gold) and leather goods (including shoes, handbags, and luggage) are some of the best purchases in Caracas, but don't expect a steal. Prices are often high in the wake of sobering inflation.
One of the most popular markets is the Thursday- and Saturday-morning Mercadito de Chacao, where you can stroll through the stands overflowing with fruits and vegetables. It's a block from Avenida Francisco de Miranda in the Chacao district.
