Plaza de Armas, Guadalajara
Pause beside Guadalajara Cathedral in a civic square framed by important public buildings, where the bandstand and surrounding façades reward a short circuit.
Plaza de Armas is a good place to read the relationship between Guadalajara's cathedral, government buildings and everyday public life. The square offers room to step back from façades that can feel compressed at street level. It also breaks up a museum-heavy day with a visit that depends on looking and lingering rather than entering another institution.

Useful to know
