Said to be the larger of the two squares in the main town centre of Gibraltar, on visiting it, in parts it’s unclear where it ends and the adjoin streets begin with the overlap of stores and restaurants spilling over beyond what could be viewed as its core. A mishmash of the historic, just plain old and more recent developments as well as addition that have expanded the area. The square is both spectacular and disappointing in equal measure.

Nearby taxis wait to take tourists on a tour on the rock and/or 360 around the city.…
