抵达委内瑞拉首都加拉加斯的时候,我的第一个念头就是想瞻仰西蒙·玻利瓦尔的故居。这次拉美之行所到各国,都曾看到玻利瓦尔的铜像和以他名字命名的广场。人们都把他称做自己祖国的“解放者”。时光流过了两个世纪,但这位拉丁美洲独立运动中的旷世英雄,却昭如星月,至今受到人们的敬仰和称颂。玻利瓦尔故居坐落在大学街,离加拉加斯广场不到200米。加拉加斯是一个相当现代化的城市,但大学街却仍以卵石铺路,街旁建筑吉意盎然,保存着18世纪的风格。玻利瓦 When I arrived in Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, my first thought was to visit the house of Simon Bolivar. All the countries to which this trip to Latin America visited have seen the bronze statue of Bolivar and the square named after him. People call him the “liberator” of his own country. Time has passed for two centuries, but the heroic hero of the Latin American movement for Independence, however, has been admired and praised by people so far. The Bolivar House is located on University Street, less than 200 meters from Caracas Square. Caracas is a rather modern city, but University Street still paved with gravel, street-side construction auspicious, preserved 18th century style. Bolivar
