This great plaza, located in the heart of Madrid, is one of the most beautiful open spaces in Spain. In medieval times, it hosted the town's most popular market. Later, in the 17th century, a renowned architect was commissioned to create a harmonious design among the buildings. From that point onward, the plaza became a center for popular entertainments, bullfights, beatifications, coronations, and even executions!!!. Today, you can enjoy watching life go by from one of the inviting terraces at Plaza Mayor.
