Plaza Mayor

The Plaza Mayor is a gorgeous plaza in the center of Madrid.  In the past, it has served many functions that included bullfights, markets, soccer games, and public executions (most from the Spanish Inquisition).  Just like in most central squares around the world, there are restaurants, bars, cafes, and tourist shops.  There is even a Le Pain Quotidien from Belgium.  In my opinion try to avoid eating or drinking in the plaza... it is way over priced compared to other parts of the city.
