My entry to the Phone Photography Contest # 16.[En-Es] A little history on a normal day
Hello friends, every June 24 the anniversary of the battle that sealed our independence is celebrated here.
Hola amigos, cada 24 de junio se celebra aqui el aniversario de la batalla que selló nuestra independencia.
Traditionally, a large parade was held with the presence of the president, first lady, members of the cabinet and other important personalities.
Tradicionalmente se hacía un gran desfile con la presencia del presidente, primera dama, miembros del gabinete y otras personalidades importantes.
The parade took place in this park erected in the same place where the battle occurred, the Campo de Carabobo. There the general public could witness it and it was broadcast on live television.
El desfile se llevaba a cabo en este parque erigido en el mismo lugar donde ocurrió la batalla, el Campo de Carabobo. Alli podia presenciarlo el publico en general y era transmitido por televisión en directo.
The four armed forces paraded and it was exciting to see the display of order and discipline there was.
Desfilaban las cuatro fuerzas armadas y era emocionante ver el despliegue de orden y disciplina que había.
It almost always rained, but that did not interrupt the event, in which they also displayed flights with military aircraft.
Casi siempre llovia, pero eso no interrumpia el acto, en el que también hacían exhibición de vuelos con aviones militares.
Apparently, this is not currently the case and only elite figures attend the parade in the park, but the general public can enter on other days, from Tuesday to Sunday until 6 pm.
Al parecer, en la actualidad no es así y al desfile en el parque solo asisten figuras de elite, pero el público general puede entrar otros dias, de martes a domingo hasta las 6 pm.
In the middle of May I was able to enter and see that they are taking care of it. It has changed in some aspects, the vegetation is lush and they have integrated lagoons, museums, farmyard and domestic animals for exhibition.
A mediados del mes de mayo pude entrar y ver que lo tienen cuidado. Ha cambiado en algunos aspectos, la vegetacion es exhuberante y han integrado lagunas, museos, animales de corral y domesticos para exhibicion.
I remember that parade with nostalgia since it seems not to be given as much importance and, although the park is very beautiful and can be visited by whoever wants, the celebration stopped having the solemnity it had before.
Recuerdo con nostalgia ese desfile ya que parece no se le da tanta importancia y, aunque el parque está muy bonito y puede ser visitado por quien quiera, la celebracion dejó de tener la solemnidad de antes.
All photos were taken by me with my Xiaomi Redmi 9 A smartphone.

Hola @elentogther, me encantó la primera foto, las flores del árbol son hermosas y el color vibrante; ah también hay Apamates, Campo Carabobo tiene lindos espacios para la diversión y esparcimiento.
Saludos!
Hola @belkyscabrera, que bien!, me alegra.
Creo que entre las cosas que me encantaron estan los arboles. Los de flores rosadas y lila son en realidad de una especie asiatica llamada Lagerstroemia speciosa.
Muchas gracias 🤗.
This is a very interesting park and the history associated with it makes it even more interesting and beautiful. 😊
Sending Love and Ecency Vote!
Yes, it is a must-see place. Since I was little I have rarely gone with my family, even though it is a few kilometers from where we live.
Thank you very much @untilwelearn 🤗.
some nice pics.
It would have been helpful if you'd put what country you were posting from.
but I got to learn something new, so thanks
Hello @stuartcturnbull, thank you, I'm glad you like my photos.
Sorry, as I had taken many photos on that trip to Campo de Carabobo, I wrote several posts with them and assumed that in all of them it was known that It was located in Venezuela.
Thanks you to you again, blessings.
