How to take a ride over the cite in a cable way cabin in Caracas
Cable way was constructed during the presidency of Jiménez and named after tribe that used to live at the bottom of Avila mountain - Warairarepano.

Cabins of "telepherique" (Spanish for cable way) go up at the height of more than 1000 meters - perfect way to admire the view of Caracas valley.
