Arequipa's Plaza de Armas is one of the most beautiful in Peru. The Plaza is graced by the Cathedral and two-story arcades. With its palm trees, old English-style garden Arequipeños congregate here for political rallies, protests or fiestas. The plaza's thick stone buildings with busily carved portals, their Moorish touches evident, breathe 450 years of history.
