The city
Capital of the state of Miranda, at 1,169 meters altitude, in the mountains southwest of Caracas. Founded in 1777, it was a cool-climate refuge for families from Caracas. The center has Plaza Bolívar with the Catedral San Felipe Neri, the Casa Arturo Michelena and the Villa Teola, a 1912 summer house. The most widespread version says the tequeño was born here.

The local experience
The main church of Los Teques, seat of the diocese, opposite Plaza Bolívar. The parish was born with the city at the end of the 18th century; the current building began to be raised in 1905 and was inaugurated in 1956.
A colonial-style house museum in the center of Los Teques, dedicated to the painter Arturo Michelena, who lived in the city in 1897 seeking the cool mountain climate, and to local history.
1912 house in downtown Los Teques, with balustrades and a garden, built as a summer residence. Restored, it now operates as a museum and cultural center.
