Plaza Pedro Anzúrez is a historic place where the Villa de la Plata was founded. At the present time this square is surrounded by the scenic view built in 1979. It is one of the public spaces of tourist and urban importance of the city. Its location on the bottom of the Churuquella hill affords a complete view of the center of the city and its surroundings, besides, it also retain its original character and the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere and serves as a place of study. The convent of La Recoleta can be found in one of its facades as well as the solar clock, and a Water Fountain that was used in 1630 for the very first time. The plaza is surrounded by old streets with singular names, like street of the Black Cat, the White Cat, the Gray Cat and the Quarrelsome which were very popular during the Colonial period.

Nice and quiet place with a great view over the city. Especially at sunset. The café there is definitely worth a visit.

Plaza Pedro de Anzúrez is a quiet, historic square in Sucre that is a wonderful place to relax. Nestled at the foot of Churuquella Hill, the square offers a wide view of the city, especially impressive at sunset. It is fascinating to see how this plaza has retained its colonial charm. Old streets with special names such as "Street of the Black Cat" and "Street of the Quarrelsome Cat" bear witness to a turbulent history.

A special highlight is the café that is located here and invites you to take a cozy break. Anyone interested in history should visit the La Recoleta convent, which adorns one of the square's facades, as well as marvel at the old sundial and the historic fountain from 1630.

The flair of this place is unmistakable, a mix of colonial architecture, quiet corners and historical heritage - the perfect spot to experience Sucre from its authentic side.
