Historic square of Palermo, with romantic allure, at sunset.
It is suggestive both from a tourist and spiritual point of view.
The many venues, and the overture at the legendary Vucciria Point of Sale, ensure the prestige of the city

Η πλατεία αυτη βρίσκεται στο ιστορικό κέντρο της πόλης, στη συνοικία La Loggia. Δημιουργήθηκε μετά το 1640, όταν και έγιναν έργα ανακατασκευής της εκκλησίας του San Domenico, η οποία και δίνει το όνομά της στην πλατεία. Στη μια πλευρά τής πλατείας περνά η κεντρική Via Roma, ενώ την άλλη πλευρά καταλαμβάνει η μεγάλη και δημοφιλής στους παλερμιτάνους εκκλησία San Domenico. Στο μέσο της πλατείας είναι τοποθετηθημένη μια ιδιαίτερη γλυπτή δημιουργία, η οποία απεικονίζει την Άμωμο Σύλληψη της Παναγίας. Αποτελείται από μια μεγάλη μαρμάρινη βάση, πάνω στην οποία υψώνεται μια πολύ ψηλή μαρμάρινη κολόνα, στην κορυφή της οποίας δεσπόζει το άγαλμα της Παναγίας. Το άγαλμα ατενίζει την πρόσοψη του San Domenico και λέγεται ότι τοποθετηθηκε τόσο ψηλά μετά από απαίτηση των Βενεδικτίνων μοναχών του τότε παρακείμενου μοναστηριού. Αυτό, γιατί οι μοναχοί ήθελαν να βλέπουν την Παναγία κατά τη διάρκεια της Θείας Λειτουργίας, από το μεγάλο παράθυρο στην πρόσοψη της εκκλησίας.

Piazza storica, il cui aspetto attuale si deve innanzi tutto alla ristrutturazione sei/settecentesca, in cui fu allargata per dare maggiore respiro alla contemporanea riedificazione della chiesa di San Domenico e implementata con l'installazione della Colonna dell'Immacolata, e poi al taglio della stessa sul lato occidentale per il passaggio della nuova via Roma, nel XIX secolo. Sul lato meridionale vi sono alcuni esercizi commerciali, tra cui dei locali, e la piazza è pedonalizzata; inoltre beneficia della "movimentazione" dell'attigua via Roma, ma l'aspetto prevalente è sicuramente quello monumentale, per la presenza della maestosa facciata della basilica di San Domenico e della bella colonna dell'Immacolata posta al centro. Da questa piazza è l'accesso principale al mercato della Vucciria.

Splendida piazza degli inizi del XVIII secolo, al centro della quale troneggia, su una colonna, una suggestiva statua dell'Immacolata. Sicuramente da non trascurare anche una visita alla bellissima chiesa.
