    Worth a stop

    Had fun strolling around here and taking it all in. There were lots of vendors out when I went which was nice to check out. Plenty of snack options and interesting buildings to admire.

    There was a festival

    The day we went they set up and had a festival with live music. The weather was warm for a mid winter day though still around 20 degrees Celsius. The locals were friendly though most did not speak English.

    Pretty fountain

    This Plaza has a nice old scool fountain in the middle. Early in the morning is a good time to people watch before it gets too hot later in the day.
