A very charming square

A very charming square, shaded by large pine trees and overlooked by a beautiful castle. What makes it truly special are the local craftsmen you can meet here — from the weaver and the plaster painter to the mosaic artist. Don’t miss the “dream hangings” shop, along with the small stores selling cacti and other unique items. A lovely place to stroll, shop, and soak up the authentic atmosphere.
