## Visit Plaza de Armas

Activities

---

---

#### Relax and watch live music in this spacious green plaza in the heart of Guadalajara’s historic centre, surrounded by many of the city’s most famous sites.

The Plaza de Armas is the main square in Guadalajara’s historic centre. With grassy areas, trees, benches and a bandstand, it is the perfect place to relax while you watch some live music then explore some of the attractions nearby. 

The name of the plaza literally translates as Weapons’ Square. It is also known locally as Plaza Mayor. Built in the late 19th century, it began as a community meeting place. Stroll around the spacious plaza and enjoy a peaceful escape from the bustle of the city. Enjoy a picnic with friends and family on the grass or relax on a bench and watch the stream of locals and tourists through the square.

Arrive at the plaza in the evening to see the area beautifully illuminated by decorative lights. Enjoy the romantic atmosphere and go for a moonlit stroll through the area. Have something to eat at one of the many restaurants and bars nearby, or buy a snack from a street vendor and sit and watch a free music concert. The state band and other musical groups perform in the plaza on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday evenings.

At the centre of the square, admire the French wrought-iron bandstand. It was purchased by former Mexican president Porfirio Diaz in 1910 to commemorate the centenary of independence. Its pillars are adorned with small statues of female figures that each represent a different musical instrument. Take a look at the Grecian figures around the plaza that denote the four seasons.

The square is located right in the middle of Guadalajara’s historic centre alongside many of the city’s principal attractions. The plaza overlooks the Guadalajara Cathedral. Admire its Gothic façade, take a tour of its ornate interior and learn about its troubled history of fires and earthquakes. Parking in the area is limited, so taking public transport is recommended. Reach the plaza by tram from the Plaza Universidad stop.

The service was remarkable! Nightly turn down with chocolates and water bottles, very special. Front desk welcoming and gave us great ideas on how to spend a free day. The workout facility had an awesome view, very clean. Hotel is within a short walking distance of several great, authentic restaurants. Beautiful area, we felt very safe. Would stay again!
