Arequipa's Central Square is one of the city's most emblematic landmarks. Surrounded by majestic colonial buildings in white stone, this square is a veritable historical and cultural centre. The great dome of Arequipa Cathedral dominates the space, offering spectacular views of the city and surrounding mountains. The arcades lining the square are perfect for a leisurely stroll, allowing visitors to discover the colonial architecture while soaking up the lively atmosphere. The atmosphere is friendly, with colourful markets, street performers and cafés where you can enjoy a local coffee while observing local life. It's also a gathering place for locals, a venue for festivities, and an ideal starting point for exploring other wonders of the city. In every corner of the square, you can feel the deep history of Arequipa, a city founded on traditions and heritage that blend harmoniously with modernity.
