This popular plaza is unlike any other in the city. It is surrounded on three sides by French-style buildings -- most of them an oddly appealing shade of pumpkin -- dating from the 1920s. Presiding over the western edge is the Gran Hotel Bolívar, a pleasant place to stop for afternoon tea. Several restaurants on the periphery let you enjoy the view of the statue of San Martín in the center.
