Plaza Mayor

Wednesday, 31st August 2005 by

Madrid's Plaza Mayor is a square completely enclosed in buildings, which makes it look very odd from above. Hidden from the surrounding streets, the square is accessed through archways and was historically the site of executions, tournaments, weddings, bullfights and inquisition trials.
