O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Osrednji vodnjak ima bronasto kip morske deklice, ki so ga domačini poimenovali "La Sirena", dodan med prenovo v šestdesetih letih. Visoki fikusi senčijo trg, njihove velikanske korenine pa ustvarjajo naravne klopi, kjer prodajalci vsako popoldne prodajajo choclo con queso (koruzo s sirom).
Poudarki: Za razliko od večine glavnih trgov v Peruju ta plaza nima katedrale ali kolonialne cerkve, ki bi sidrala njen obod, kar ji daje nenavadno odprt in zračen občutek. Po temi se vodnjak osvetli v spreminjajočih se barvah, medtem ko se lokalne družine vsak petek zvečer zberejo na brezplačnih plesnih urah marinele in huayna.
Notranji nasveti
- The cafeteria-style restaurant on the northwest corner, Cafetin Plaza, serves the best 6-sol almuerzo (set lunch) in town, including soup, main course, and a drink.
- The bench with the best shade sits under the giant rubber tree on the south side, near the shoe-shine stands.
- If you visit on a Sunday morning, you'll catch an informal artisan market with handwoven textiles and ceramic Nazca replicas set up along the east edge.
- Don't bother with the small tourist train ride that circles the square, it's overpriced at 10 soles for a 5-minute loop.
