  • 1. Plaza de la Asunción

    Here on one of Jerez's most intimate squares you can find the Mudejar church of San Dionisio (open 10–noon, Monday–Thursday), patron saint of the city, and the ornate cabildo municipal (city hall) with a lovely plateresque façade dating to 1575.

  • 2. Las Setas

    Centro

    This huge square, at the west end of Calle Cuna, is home to the world's largest wooden structure, 492 feet long by 230 feet wide. Known in the city as "Las Setas" (The Mushrooms), the piece is actually meant to represent giant trees, and walkways run through the "treetops" affording great views of the city, especially at sunset. Although it's reminiscent of Gaudí, it was built in 2011. At ground level, the Antiquarium (€2; closed Mon.) has interesting archaeological remains (mostly Roman), and there's also a large indoor food market.

  • 3. Plaza de España

    Parque Maria Luisa

    This grandiose half-moon of buildings on the eastern edge of Parque María Luisa was Spain's centerpiece pavilion at the 1929 World's Fair. The brightly colored azulejo pictures represent the provinces of Spain, while the four bridges symbolize the medieval kingdoms of the Iberian Peninsula. In fine weather you can rent small boats to row along the arc-shape canal. To escape the crowds and enjoy views of the square from above, pop upstairs.

  • 4. Plaza de los Dolores

    Centro

    The 17th-century Convento de Capuchinos surrounds this small square north of Plaza de San Miguel. The square is where you feel most deeply the city's languid pace. In its center, a statue of Cristo de los Faroles (Christ of the Lanterns) stands amid eight lanterns hanging from twisted wrought-iron brackets.

    Córdoba, Andalusia, 14002, Spain
  • 5. Plaza de los Refinadores

    Barrio de Santa Cruz

    This shady square filled with palms and orange trees is separated from the Murillo Gardens by an iron grillwork and ringed with stately glass balconies. At its center is a monument to Don Juan Tenorio, the famous Don Juan known for his amorous conquests.

  • 6. Plaza de San Miguel

    Centro

    The square and café terraces around it—and its atmospheric tavern, Taberna San Miguel–Casa El Pisto—form one of the city's finest combinations of art, history, and gastronomy. San Miguel Church has an interesting façade with Romanesque doors built around Mudejar horseshoe arches and a Mudejar dome inside.

    Córdoba, Andalusia, 14002, Spain
  • 7. Plaza de Santa Marina

    Centro

    At the edge of the Barrio de los Toreros, a quarter where many of Córdoba's famous bullfighters were born and raised, stands a statue of the famous bullfighter Manolete (1917–47) opposite the lovely church of Santa Marina de Aguas Santas (St. Marina of Holy Waters), built by Fernando III when he conquered the city in 1236. Not far from here, on the Plaza de la Lagunilla, is a bust of Manolete.

  • 8. Plaza de Toros Real Maestranza

    El Arenal

    Sevillanos have spent many a thrilling evening in this bullring, one of the oldest and loveliest plazas de toros in Spain, built between 1760 and 1763. The 20-minute tour (in English) takes in the empty arena, a museum with elaborate costumes and prints, and the chapel where matadors pray before the fight. Bullfights take place in the evening Thursday–Sunday from April through July and in September. Tickets can be booked online or by phone; book well in advance to be sure of a seat.
