I was surprised to see such a nice plaza on Tenerife. The square is facing the main church, has a few momunments, nice buiildings all across. You might not be lucky with a photo without tourists or audio equipment as there are many entertainment events taking place. It's a good place to stop for coffee.

This square is a great place to sit, relax & think about the long history of the city & the island. The surrounding buildings are lovely, and so are the many benches for elderly people (like me) to sit on.

Magnificient arquitecture, peaceful, with the Cathedral on one side, and the Palace of Bishops on the other. No crowds, just sit and enjoy!
