Why go
The square gathers three sides of the city's public life in one small area: municipal government, the parish church and the waterfront. Find the bronze statue of Ignacio Vallarta, the Jalisco jurist after whom the city is named, then look across to the church's crowned tower. Los Arcos amphitheater is close enough to continue on foot.
What to look for
- The bronze statue of Ignacio Vallarta, the city's namesake.
- City Hall beside the central square.
- The crowned Guadalupe parish tower across the square.
Useful to know
- Use the square to link the parish church with the nearby Malecón and Los Arcos amphitheater.
- Treat performances or other events as a bonus; check a current program if one is central to your visit.
