Why go

The square is best understood through its proportions and edges. The large palace frontage, open paved area and surrounding avenue show a public setting designed for gatherings and ceremonies. A short look here provides a useful comparison with the more intimate town-hall square and the memorial focus of Victory Square.

What to look for

  • Palace of the Republic frontage
  • Large paved civic space
