Plaza Mayor, Centro, Madrid, Spain



Plaza Mayor is a popular plaza in use since the early 1600's. Restaurants and retail shops ring the perimeter of the grand courtyard and the area is a magnet for residents and tourists alike to hang out, eat, drink, shop, see and be seen.



There is a covered arcade around the perimeter with shops on the ground floor. The higher floors are apartments that surround the plaza and are prime real estate of great value.



A popular tourist diversion is posing in traditional attire.



Some folks look pretty good.......



....and others - not so much.



In fact, some people look better by not even participating.
