Plaza Mayor

This beautifully proportioned cobbled square was begun by Philip II and completed by Philip III in 1619 – his statue stands proudly at the centre. Plaza Mayor was both a marketplace and the setting for public spectacles, everything from the ritual condemnation of heretics to bull fights and pageants. Today, tourists outnumber the locals but Plaza Mayor is still as lively as it was in the past, with shops and cafés in the covered arcades. The Plaza is the Trafalgar Square or Times Square of Madrid.
